TP cable termination
NOTE: RJ-45 termination with CAT 5, CAT 5e, or CAT 6 cable must comply with the
TIA/EIA T568A or TIA/EIA T568B wiring standards for all connections.
RJ-45 termination with Skew-Free A/V UTP cable must comply with TIA/EIA
T568A only.
Figure 11 details the recommended termination of TP cables with RJ-45 connectors in
accordance with the TIA/EIA T568A or TIA/EIA T568B wiring standards. You can use either
standard with CAT 5/5e/6 cable, but ensure that you use the same standard on both ends
of the cable.

Figure 11. TP cable termination
NOTE: The audio data that is carried on wire pair 3 and 6 is incompatible with the
Extron TPX 88A, which cannot switch the audio, output it locally, or break it
away.
NOTES: • Enhanced Skew-Free A/V cable is not recommended for Ethernet/LAN
applications. This cable is specially designed for compatibility with Extron’s
Twisted Pair products that are wired using the TIA/EIA T568A standard.
• The green, brown, and blue wire pairs of this cable have virtually identical
lengths and should be used to transmit the RGB signals.
• The orange wire pair of this cable has a different length and should not be
used to transmit the RGB signals.
