Cables, Connectors, and Pinouts
Table 9-5 lists the maximum cable length between two nodes in a 100BASE-TX network.
Pinouts
Table 9-6 provides pinout information for the 8-port fast Ethernet half-height line card. The 8-port fast
Ethernet half-height line card does not support software configuration of the MDI mode including
auto-MDIX mode. It does not support Inter-Switch Link (ISL) encapsulation (the card does support
802.1Q VLAN encapsulation), or Fast EtherChannel.
Go to Chapter 16, “Preparing for Installation” to begin the installation or replacement of the line card.
For troubleshooting information, see Chapter 18, “Troubleshooting the Installation.”
