TP Cable Termination and Recommendations
It is vital that you use the correct Ethernet cables, and that they be properly terminated with
the correct pinout. Ethernet links use Category (CAT) 5e or CAT 6, unshielded twisted pair
(UTP) or shielded twisted pair (STP) cables, terminated with RJ-45 connectors. Ethernet
cables are limited to a length of 328 feet (100 m).
