4.5.2 Ethernet Port Cable Specifications and Pinouts

The 10 Base-T/100 Base-T Fast Ethernet ports support IEEE 802.3 and IEEE 802.3u
specifications for the 10-Mbps and 100-Mbps transmission over Unshielded Twisted-Pair (UTP)
cables. Use Category-3 or Category-5 UTP cable with RJ-45 connectors to connect the 10/100
Base-T Ethernet LAN A port on the e8350 Satellite Router to the customer-provided LAN hub
or switch.
Note: iDirect supplies one 7-foot Category 5 UTP cable to connect the e8350 Satellite
Router to the LAN hub or switch. If additional cables or different lengths are
needed, they may be bought commercially.
To determine the type of RJ-45 cable, examine the sequence of the colored wires as follows:
• Straight through: The colored wires are in the same sequence at both ends of the cable.
• Crossover: The first (far left) colored wire at one end of the cable is the third colored
wire at the other end of the cable, and the second colored wire at one end of the cable is
the sixth colored wire at the end of the cable.
The pin assignments for the RJ-45 connector are listed in
Figure 18.
4.6 Connecting AC Power
The e8350 Satellite Router can be powered directly from the facility AC power source from
100 VAC to 240 VAC. iDirect recommends that the power is supplied by a low noise, low
transient AC power source.
