Every wire uses a different color, and has a diameter of about 1 mm (0.04 in).
  • Page 65 Figure9-3 RJ-45 connector pinout PIN #8 PIN #1 NOTE: The RJ-45 Ethernet ports of the firewall use category 5 or higher Ethernet twisted pair cables for connection. EIA/TIA cabling specifications define two standards, 568A and 568B, for cable pinouts. • Standard 568A—pin 1: white/green stripe, pin 2: green solid, pin 3: white/orange stripe, pin 4: blue solid, pin 5: white/blue stripe, pin 6: orange solid, pin 7: white/brown stripe, pin 8: brown solid.
