Connecting an interface module to the network

Connecting an Ethernet cable

Overview

You can connect a RIC-4GEE or a RIC-8GEE to the network through Ethernet cables as shown in

the following figure.

Figure 6 Ethernet cable

10/100 Mbps Ethernet uses category-5 twisted pair cables, and 1000 Mbps Ethernet uses

category-5 enhanced or category-6 twisted pair cables. Twisted pair cables include straight-through

cables and crossover cables.

Table 7 Ethernet cables

scenario

Category-5 Common Ethernet cables 100 MHz 100Base-T and

10Base-T networks

Category-5e

•Low attenuation and crosstalk

•Higher attenuation to crosstalk ratio (ACR)

•Less delay error and higher performance

100 MHz 1000 Mbps Ethernet

networks

Category-6

•Improved performance on crosstalk and

return loss

•Sufficient power sum ACR (PS-ACR) when

working at 200 MHz

•Bandwidth twice than that of Cat-5e cables

1 MHz to 250

MHz

Applications

requiring a

transmission speed

of more than 1 Gbps

The 10/100 Mbps Ethernet uses two pairs of cables, orange/white, orange, green/white and green

cables, to transmit and receive data, while the 1000 Mbps Ethernet uses four pairs of cables to

transmit and receive data.

For the pinouts of common twisted pair cables, see the following tables. (A and B represent the two

ends of a cable, respectively.)
