8 Cables and Connectors Cable characteristics: Category 3 or better unshielded twisted-pair or EIA /TIA-568 compliant, 100-ohm shielded twisted-pair data cable with 0.4 to 0.6 mm (22 to 26 AWG) wires in two or four twisted pairs (only two pairs--that is, four wires--are used for 10BASE-T ).
9 Crossover Cables When making an uplink connection between one hub and another (or between a hub and a switch or bridge) using X -type jacks at both ends, you must use a crossover cable. In a crossover cable, two pairs of wires are switched at one end.
10 Specifications General Standards: IEEE 802.3 10BASE-T Ethernet repeater, and ANSI X3T9.5 twisted-pair transceiver Topology : Star Protocol: CSMA/CD Network Data Transfer Rate: Ethernet: 10Mbps Numb.
