DFE-500TX Ethernet PC Card User's Guide
10
Connecting for 10Mbps Ethernet
Category 3, Category 4, and Category 5 UTP cable, as well as EIA/TIA - 568
100-ohm STP cable, all qualify under Ethernet cabling rules. The maximum
cable run between the DFE-500TX and the supporting hub is 300 ft. The cable
must be “straight” (not a “crossover” cable) with RJ-45 plug at each end.
Make the network connection by plugging one end of the cable into the RJ-45
receptacle of the DFE-500TX, and the other end into a port of the supporting
hub.
