It is recommended that where possible shielded CAT-5E cable is utilised for linking J27 to a
bulkhead RJ45 connector to ensure signal integrity and to avoid EM interference. Where this is
not possible or where linkage to a companion device is internal to an enclosure, twisted pairs
must be used for each of the four Ethernet pairs.
It is imperative that a shielded RJ45 connector be used where the connector is grounded to the
enclosure (chassis ground) to avoid electromagnetic interference.
