Appendix C Network Cabling This appendix provides specifications for cables used with a NETGEAR GS108T Gigabit Smart Switch. Fast Ethernet Cable Guidelines Fast Ethernet uses UTP cable, as specified in the IEEE 802.3u standard for 100BASE-TX. The specification requires Category 5 UTP cable consisting of either two-pair or four-pair twisted, insulated copper conductors bound in a single plastic sheath. Category 5 cable is certified up to 100 MHz bandwidth.
GS108T Smart Switch Software Administration Manual Category 5 Cable Specifications Ensure that the fiber cable is crossed over to guarantee link. Table C-1 lists the electrical requirements of Category 5 UTP cable. Table C-1. Electrical Requirements of Category 5 Cable Specifications Category 5 Cable Requirements Number of pairs Four Impedance 100 ± 15% Mutual capacitance at 1 KHz 5.6 nF per 100 m Maximum attenuation (dB per 100 m, at 20° C) At 4 MHz: 8.2 At 31 MHz: 11.7 At 100 MHz: 22.
GS108T Smart Switch Software Administration Manual Figure C-1 illustrates straight-through twisted-pair cable. Figure C-1 Figure C-2 illustrates crossover twisted-pair cable. Figure C-2 Patch Panels and Cables If you are using patch panels, make sure that they meet the 100BASE-TX requirements. Use Category 5 UTP cable for all patch cables and work area cables to ensure that your UTP patch cable rating meets or exceeds the distribution cable rating.
GS108T Smart Switch Software Administration Manual Figure C-3 Note: Flat “silver satin” telephone cable might have the same RJ-45 plug. However, using telephone cable results in excessive collisions, causing the attached port to be partitioned or disconnected from the network. Using 1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet over Category 5 Cable When you use the new 1000BASE-T standard, you must consider the limitations of cable installations and the steps necessary to ensure optimum performance.
GS108T Smart Switch Software Administration Manual If installing new cable, NETGEAR recommends using Category 5e cable, since it costs about the same as Category 5 cable. If using the existing cable, be sure to have the cable plant tested by a professional who can verify that it meets or exceeds either ANSI/EIA/TIA-568-A:1995 or ISO/ IEC 11801:1995 Category 5 specifications. Length The maximum distance limitation between two pieces of equipment is 100 m, as per the original Ethernet specification.
GS108T Smart Switch Software Administration Manual located. NEXT measures the amount of energy that is “returned” to the sender end. The factors that affect NEXT and cross talk are exactly the same as outlined in the “Return Loss” section. The cross-talk performance is directly related to the quality of the cable installation. Patch Cables When installing your equipment, replace old patch panel cables that do not meet Category 5e specifications.
