3.4 CONNECTING THE 10/100BASE-T ETHERNET INTERFACE

The shielded RJ-45 port labeled Ethernet is the 10/100Base-T interface. This port is designed to connect directly to a 10/100Base-T network. Figure 6 shows the signal/pin relationships on this interface. You may connect this port to another Ethernet device via a Type 4 or Type 5 cable that is up to 328 ft long.
