Nortel recommends a maximum length of 100 meters for the cable segment between a 100BASE-TX repeater and a workstation (due to signal timing requirements). This wiring scheme complies with the EIA 568 wiring standard. • 10BASE-T connections can use Category 3, 4, or 5 twisted-pair wiring.
The VPN Router 600, 1100, 1600 and 2600 only support 10/100 Mbit/s operation for the 1000BASE-T (1000 GT) Ethernet card. To ensure reliable speed/duplex operation on these platforms, Nortel recommends that both the interface and the attached devices are hard-coded to the appropriate matching 10/100 speed and duplex settings.
