Cabling and Voltage Requirements

This section describes cabling and voltage requirements for the Dual-speed
FriendlyNet Hubs FH208, FH208B, FH216, and FH216B.

Cabling Requirements

10Base-T

10Base-T transmission connection requires UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair)
Category 3 cables.

100Base-TX

100Base-TX transmission connection requires UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair)
Category 5 cables. 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.

Important! Some installations have UTP Category 5
cabling, but do not have wall outlets and/or wiring closet
punchdown blocks that meet Category 5 requirements.
