System ports
The VPN Router 2700 system board provides the following built-in interfaces:
• 10/100BASE-TX Ethernet LAN port
•serial port
This section provides information about the 10/100BASE-TX Ethernet LAN port
and the serial port on the system board.
10/100BASE-TX Ethernet LAN port
The system board provides one 10/100BASE-TX Ethernet LAN interface on the
rear of the chassis. Use this LAN interface, which accommodates an RJ-45
straight- through cable, for Web management. Depending on whether you use the
interface for 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX operation, select cables for the interface
as follows:
• 100BASE-TX connections require Category 5 twisted-pair wire. The
100BASE-TX specification supports 100 Mb/s transmission over two pairs of
Category 5 twisted-pair Ethernet wiring: one pair each for transmit and
receive operations.
Nortel recommends a maximum length of 100 meters for the cable segment
between a 100BASE-TX repeater and a workstation (due to signal timing
requirements). This wiring scheme complies with the EIA 568 wiring
standard.
• 10BASE-T connections can use Category 3, 4, or 5 twisted-pair wiring.
Figure 27 shows the 10/100BASE-TX connector and the connector pinouts.
