9.4 Troubleshooting CAT-5/5E/6
Refer to Table A-1 on page A-1 for a description of the CAT-5/5E/6 wire assignment.
The following table summarizes
CAT-5/5E/6 problems if a wire is cut or not wired
properly.
Table 9-14 Summary of Cat-5/5E/6 Cable Wiring Problems
Type of
problem Message Icon Icon* Impact
Wire 1 or 2 cut None High phase noise, degraded signal on both
Downlink and Uplink (high bit error rate)
Wire 3 or 6 cut • No communication with RAUn RAU unable to communicate with EH,
decreased UL gain, or no UL gain
Wire 4 or 5 cut • Portn UL RF path loss is too high Increased ripple in the uplink path,
decreased UL gain, or no UL gain
• Portn UL RF path loss is higher
than recommended
Wire 7 or 8 cut • The DL RF path loss is too high Increased ripple in the downlink path,
RAU off-line
• The DL RF path loss is higher than
recommended
Wire 1 to RJ-45
pin 3 or 6
• No communication with RAUn RAU unable to communicate with EH,
RAU’s RS-485 port damaged, degraded
performance or RAU off-line
Wire 1 to RJ-45
pin 4, 5, 7 or 8
•RAUn over current RAU will not power on.
Wire 2 to RJ-45
pin 3 or 6
• No communication with RAUn RAU unable to communicate with EH,
RAU’s RS-485 port damaged, degraded
performance or RAU off-line
