TP Cable Termination
NOTE: RJ-45 termination must comply with the TIA/EIA T 568A or TIA/EIA T 568B wiring
standards for all connections. If you are using Skew-Free™ A/V UTP cable, then
you should use the TIA/EIA T 568A standard only.
Figure 9 details the recommended termination of TP cables with RJ-45 connectors in
accordance with the TIA/EIA T 568A or TIA/EIA T 568B wiring standards. You can use either
standard with CAT 5 cable, but ensure that you use the same standard on both ends of the
cable.
