Appendix C: Cables and Pin Assignments This Appendix describes the information on 10BaseT/100BaseTX, 1000BaseT, and testing for existing Category 5 cables. C.1 Twisted-Pair Cable and Pin Assignments For 10BaseT/100BaseTX connections, a twisted-pair cable must have two pairs of wires. Each wire pair is identified by two different colors. For example, one green wire and another green with white stripes. You must attach an RJ-45 connector to both ends of the cable.
Note: The “+” and “-” signs represent the polarity of the wires that make up each wire pair. C.1.2 Straight-Through Wiring If the twisted-pair cable is to join two ports and only one of the ports has an internal crossover (MDI-X), the two pairs of wires must be straight-through. (When auto-negotiation is enabled for any RJ-45 port on this switch, you can use either straight-through or crossover cable to connect to any device type.
The table below shows the 1000BaseT MDI and MDI-X port pinouts. These ports require that all four pairs of wires be connected. Note that for 1000BaseT operation, all four pairs of wires are used for both transmit and receive. Use 100-ohm Category 5, 5e or 6 unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) or shielded twisted-pair (STP) cable for 1000BaseT connections. The length of any twisted-pair connection must not exceed 100 meters (328 feet).
