Appendix A Signal Connection Arrangements

RJ-45 Ethernet Port

The HS960 RJ-45 Ethernet port can connect to any networking devices that use a standard LAN interface, such as a Hub/Switch Hub or Router. Use unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) or shield twisted-pair (STP) cable to connect the networking device to the RJ-45 Ethernet port.

Depending on the type of connection, 10Mbps or 100Mbps, use the following Ethernet cable, as prescribed. 10Mbps: Use EIA/TIA-568-100-Category 3, 4 or 5 cable.

100Mbps: Use EIA/TIA-568-100-Category 5 cable.
