RJ-45 Pin Specification
When connecting the Compaq ProLiant BL p-class GbE Interconnect Switch to a switch,
bridge, or hub, an Ethernet cable is necessary.
Figure B-1 displays the standard RJ-45 receptacle/connector for 10/100 Mb/s and Gigabit
over Copper ports. Table B-1 indicates the pin number and wire color assignments for the
switch-to-network adapter card connection, and the Ethernet cable for the switch-to-switch,
switch-to-hub, or switch-to-bridge connection. Table B-2 provides the same information for
the Gigabit over Copper ports.
NOTE: A cable configured for Gigabit over Copper can also be used on a 10/100-Mb/s connection.
