When you connect cables to the ports on the interface cards, follow these restrictions and guidelines:
•
Use category-6A or above cables and connectors.
•
Do not bundle cables in their first 20 m (65.62 ft).
•
Separate power cords and twisted pair cables at and around the distribution frame.
•
For ports adjacent to one another on the device, the peer ports on the distribution frame is
preferably not adjacent, for example:
If the device connects to one distribution frame, connect port 1 on the device to port 1 on the
distribution frame and port 2 on the device to port 3 on the distribution frame.
If the device connects to two distribution frames, connect port 1 on the device to port 1 on
distribution frame 1 and port 2 on the device to port 1 on distribution frame 2.
•
Keep the device and twisted pair cables away from the interference source, such as a two-way
radio and a high-power variable-frequency drive.
