5.1.1. Best practice for shielded CAT5/6 connectors

CAUTION
To avoid the possibility of damage to network components due
to electrostatic discharge (ESD), it is extremely important that
all shielded CAT5/6 connectors are assembled according to
the standards and directives in this section.
Figure 5. Shielded CAT5/6 connector
Use only professional-quality, outdoor-rated, RF-shielded cables in
conjunction with Fluidmesh radio transceivers.
Assemble all shielded CAT5/6 connectors to the following standards:
• Only use shielded RJ45 Ethernet connectors.
• When inserting each connector into a shielded Ethernet port, the
connector's inner jacket must form a positive contact with the
Ethernet port.
• When each RJ45 connector is plugged into the correct Ethernet
port of the Cisco FM3200 Endo, lock the bottom of the RJ45
connector using the side retaining screws.
• When all RJ45 connectors are connected to the unit, make sure
that the bottom cover of the unit is correctly secured to the unit
enclosure.
