Connecting to a 1000BASE-T Port

To connect to a 1000BASE-T port, use
Category 5 or 5e cable. The maximum
cable length is 100m (328 feet). You
should test the cable installation for IEEE 802.3ab compliance. See "1000BASE-T
Cable Requirements" on page 18. Note that this module operates at 10, 100 or
1000 Mbps with support for auto-negotiation of duplex mode (full/half), speed, and
flow control.
There are 3 LEDs on the front panel of the 1000BASE-T module to indicate
communication speed. Their status is shown in the following table.
