When

subdividing cable segments,

do

not

randomly

pick

any

length

of

cable.

The

IEEE

recommends that Ethernet coaxial

cable

be

subdivided

at

lengths

of

23.4 meters (76.8 feet),

or

multiples

of

that length,

in

order

to

minimize internal signal

reflections.

Using less

than

10 ft.

of

cable

between

devices

causes reflections. These reflections

reduce

the

signal

strength for large networks.

On

small networks, such as

those

covering a single floor

of

a building,

these

reflections

probably

won't

cause problems.

• You may

want

to

install a wiring system

in

your

building,

or

you may already have one, that allows you

to

run

a 10BaseT

cable

to

a

wall

jack.

positioned correctly

with

the

on

the

modular jack oriented

down.

Pin 1 is

the

left-most pin, and Pin 8 is

the

right-most pin.
