Caution: Do not plug a phone jack connector into an RJ-45 port. For

Ethernet connections, use only twisted-pair cables with RJ-45
connectors that conform to FCC standards.

Wiring Conventions

For Ethernet connections, a twisted-pair cable must have two pairs of
wires. Each wire pair is identified by two different colors. For example, one
wire might be red and the other, red with white stripes. Also, an RJ-45
connector must be attached to both ends of the cable.
