Cables and Connectors
This appendix lists cables that have been tested and verified for use with
the HP AdvanceStack 10Base-T Hubs. It also includes minimum pin-out
information so, if you wish to use an unlisted cable, you can verify that
the cables used in your installation are correctly wired. Note that each
pin-out does not necessarily match the pin-out for the corresponding HP
cable, but cables manufactured to follow the minimum pin-out will
function correctly.
N o t e
Incorrectly wired cabling is the most common cause of problems for
LAN communications. HP recommends that you work with a qualified
LAN cable installer for assistance with your cabling requirements.
These topics are discussed:
Recommended HP cables
Twisted-pair cable/connector pin-outs
ThinLAN cable requirements
AUI cable
Console connector and cable pin-outs
For information about the cable used for the Redundant Power Supply
(RPS), see the documentation accompanying the RPS.
