RJ-45 Network Ports
RJ-45 Network Ports can connect any networking devices that use a standard LAN interface,
such as a Hub/Switch Hub or Router. Use unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) or shield twisted-pair
(STP) cable to connect the networking device to the RJ-45 Ethernet port. Depending on the
type of connection, 10Mbps or 100Mbps, use the following Ethernet cable, as prescribed.
10Mbps: Use EIA/TIA-568-100-Category 3, 4 or 5 cable.
100Mbps: Use EIA/TIA-568-100-Category 5 cable.
