Connecting Twisted-Pair Cable

Each RJ-45 port on the repeater can accept a standard 8-wire twisted-pair (UTP
or STP) cable that ends with an RJ-45 connector. These ports can support cable
lengths up to 100 meters (328 feet). The TX models use Category 5 cable.
To attach twisted-pair cable, plug one of the RJ-45 connectors into the selected
port on the repeater. Connect the other RJ-45 connector into a 100Base-T-
equipped device.
