Terminators The male network terminator supplied with each GT Inverter (Figure 3-12) is
required at each end of the network to ensure the communication signal quality on
the network.
GT Inverter Xanbus
Ports Two RJ45 ports are provided in the GT Inverter, accessible from the wiring box.
See Figure 3-13 for the location of these ports.
Cabling Requirements
The network uses Category 5 (CAT 5 or CAT5e) cable, a standard cable available
from any computer supply store. The cable consists of eight conductors in four
twisted pairs with an RJ45 modular connector wired to the T568A standard.
Table 3-2 contains the arrangements of wire colors to pin numbers for the T568A
standard.
