2.8 Network Communication Interfaces 2.8.1 10Base-T RJ-45 Pinout

The 10BASE-T Ethernet network (RJ-45) system is used in the Coordinator for network connectivity. The 10 Mbps twisted-pair Ethernet system operates over two pairs of wires. One pair is used for receiving data signals and the other pair is used for transmitting data signals. This means that four pins of the eight-pin connector are used.

2.8.2 10Base-T Crossover Wiring

When connecting the Coordinator directly to the computer, the transmit data pins of the computer should be wired to the receive data pins of the Coordinator, and vice versa. The 10Base-T crossover cable with pin connection assignments are shown below.
