Copper Ethernet Port (If Equipped)

The 100Base-TX copper Ethernet port features a standard RJ-45 connector or
Siemens's FastConnect RJ-45 connector, both of which are directly connected to
the chassis ground. Standard Category 5 (CAT-5) unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) or
shielded twisted-pair (STP) cables can be used to connect to this port.

Electric shock hazard – risk of serious personal injury and/or equipment
interference
If shielded cables are used, make sure the shielded cables do not form a ground loop
via the shield wire and the RJ-45 connectors at either end. Ground loops can cause
excessive noise and interference, but more importantly, create a potential shock
hazard that can result in serious injury.
