Here are the guidelines:
Port
The cable requirements for the port are listed in Table 10.
Standard TIA/EIA 568-B-

or unshielded cabling with 100
ohm impedance and a
frequency of 16 MHz.
Standard TIA/EIA 568-A-
compliant Category 5 or TIA/
EIA 568-B-compliant Enhanced
Category 5 (Cat 5e) shielded or
unshielded cabling with 100
ohm impedance and a
frequency of 100 MHz.
Standard TIA/EIA 568-B-

configuration file from flash drive.
The port should only be used for initial configuration and
maintenance access to the chassis.
The NET MGMT port has a standard 8-pin RJ-45 connector and
operates at 10, 100, or 1000 Mbps in either half- or full-duplex
mode.
The default setting for the port is Auto-Negotiation, which sets the
speed and duplex mode automatically. You may disable Auto-
Negotiation and configure the port manually.
The wiring configuration of the NET MGMT port is set automatically
