Network Cable Requirements
The NIC supports a UTP Ethernet cable equipped with a standard RJ45-compatible plug.
Observe the following cabling restrictions.
l Use Category 5 or greater wiring and connectors.
l Do not exceed a cable run length (from a workstation to a hub) of 100 m (328 ft).
For detailed guidelines on operation of a network, see "Systems Considerations of Multi-Segment Networks" in the IEEE 802.3 standard.
