Not only does 100BASE-TX have a different data transmission scheme,
it also has different cabling requirements. As previously noted,
100BASE-TX requires data-grade (Category 5) UTP cable.
Some installations have Category 5 cabling but do not have wall outlets
and wiring closet punch-down blocks that meet Category 5 require-
ments. 100BASE-TX requires that all wiring and accessories meet
EIA/TIA 568B specifications for proper operation. When wiring a
100BASE-TX network, make sure that the entire cable plant meets
specifications.
