Site Planning
To ensure safe and durable wiring, router installation must follow appropriate electrical and
building codes. Follow all local codes and regulations. For example in the U.S., follow the
National Electrical Code (NEC) requirements, unless local codes in your area take precedence
over the NEC code.
The maximum length of Cat 5 cable for 10BASE-T, 10/100BASE-T, and 10/100/1000BASE-T
Ethernet connections is 300 feet (90 meters).
The Ethernet duplex and speed setting is configurable.
Note
The U.S. National Electrical Codes (NEC) Article 800 requires the use of Agency Listed (UL/CSA/TUV)
Building Entrance Protector for all power and data communications cables entering a building. The NEC
intends by Article 800 to protect the building and occupants from fires caused by transient voltage and
current surges.
Note
Ethernet data cable installations having lengths greater than 140 feet in the outdoor environment must use
a UL497 approved (UL/CSA/TUV Listed) primary protection device at the building entrance. Ethernet data
cable installations having lengths less than 140 feet in the outdoor environment may use a UL497A (UL/
CSA/TUV Listed) secondary protection device at the building entrance. Tropos Data Protection Device and
Network Protection Units are UL497A secondary protection devices.
