Table 2-10 lists the pinouts and signals for the RJ-45 connector.
Note Referring to the RJ-45 pinout in Table 2-10, proper common-mode line terminations should be used for
the unused Category 5 UTP cable pairs 4/5 and 7/8. Common-mode termination reduces the
contributions to electromagnetic interference (EMI) and susceptibility to common-mode sources. Wire
pairs 4/5 and 7/8 are actively terminated in the RJ-45 port circuitry in the 8-Port FastEthernet SPA.
The 8-Port FastEthernet SPA supports automatic MDI/MDIX crossover at all speeds of operation
allowing the SPA to work with straight-through and crossover Ethernet cables. Depending on your RJ-45
interface cabling requirements, use the pinouts in Figure 2-7 and Figure 2-8.
