Ethernet Connector The system board in your Netfinity 5000 contains an Ethernet controller. The controller has an external RJ-45 connector on the rear of the server that is used with a category 3, 4, or 5 twisted-pair cable. The connector enables an Ethernet network to attach to the internal transceiver in your server. The 100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet standard requires that the cabling in the network be Category 5 or higher. See "Configuring the Ethernet Controller" on page 32 for additional information about the Ethernet controller. Table 3 shows the pin-number assignments for the RJ-45 connector. These assignments apply to both 10BASE-T and 100-BASETX devices. 10BASE-T or 100 BASE-TX UTP Cable 1 23 Pins 6 RJ-45 Modular Plug Connector Table 3.
