If Internet services are provided through an xDSL or Cable
modem, use unshielded or shielded twisted-pair Ethernet cable
(Category 3 or greater) with RJ-45 plugs to connect the broadband
modem directly to the WAN port on the Barricade. Use either
straight-through or crossover cable depending on the port type
provided by the modem (see Appendix B). For ISDN or PSTN
service, attach the access device to the RS-232 serial port on the
Barricade.
