Chapter 5: Technical Glossary 5. Technical Glossary Category 5 (CAT5) Network Cabling — Category 5 cable is commonly also referred to as CAT5. This cabling is available in either solid or stranded twisted pair copper wire variants and as UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) or STP (Shielded Twisted Pair). - Page 16 Chapter 5: Technical Glossary RJ-45 — The Registered Jack (RJ) physical interface is what connects the network cabling (CAT5) to the local extender and remote extender. You may use either the T568A scheme (Table 5-1) or the T568B scheme (Table 5-2) for cable termination because the extender uses all four pairs of the cable.
