Ethernet Port Connector
The WAE appliance comes with one integrated dual-port Ethernet controller. This
controller provides an interface for connecting to 10-Mbps, 100-Mbps, or
1000-Mbps networks and provides full-duplex (FDX) capability, which enables
simultaneous transmission and reception of data on the Ethernet LAN.
To access the Ethernet port, connect a Category 3, 4, or 5 unshielded twisted-pair
(UTP) cable to the RJ-45 connector on the back of the device.
Note The 100BASE-TX/1000BASE-TX Ethernet standard requires that the cabling in
the network be Category 5 or higher.
Figure 1-10 shows the pin number assignments for the Ethernet RJ-45 port.
