Cables and Connectors

The cable used to connect the 150/300 PIDU to the ODU can be any standard CAT5e type
provided that it is suitable for outdoor deployment. Motorola recommends that cables to the
specification below be used:
NEC/CEC: CMR (ETL) C (ETL) 75C SUN RES OIL RES II
Failure to use the recommended (or equivalent) standard of cable may invalidate the
system's safety certification.
The cable used to connect the 150/300 PIDU to the users Network Equipment can be any
standard CAT5e Cable.
The 150/300 PIDU to ODU and 150/300 PIDU to Network Equipment cables may be
unscreened (UTP) or screened (STP). However, unscreened cables reduce the system's
ability to cope with nearby lightning strikes. If lightning activity is common in the area of
deployment, the use of screened cable is highly recommended. See Section 12 " Lightning
Protection ".
The 150/300 PIDU provides screen continuity between the ODU and Network Equipment
connections.
The ODU network connection implements automatic MDI/MDI-X sensing and pair swapping
allowing connection to another piece of networking equipment or directly to end user
equipment.

Surge Arrestor

The 150/300 PIDU does not provide lightning or surge suppression. Should lightning or surge
suppression be required a separate Ethernet surge suppressor should be used and
appropriately grounded. Suitable surge suppressors can be sourced from your Motorola
distributor or reseller. See Section 12 "
