    GUIDELINES This appendix provides specifications for cables used with the NETGEAR Model FSM726S or FSM750S Managed Stackable Switch. Fast Ethernet Cable Guidelines Fast Ethernet uses UTP cable, as specified in the IEEE 802.3u standard for 100BASE-TX.The specification requires Category 5 UTP cable

    you are using patch panels, make sure that they meet the 100BASE-TX requirements. NETGEAR recommends Category 5 UTP cable for all patch cables and work area cables to ensure results in excessive collisions, causing the attached port to be partitioned or disconnected from the network.
