Patch Panels and Cables
If you are using patch panels, make sure that they meet the 100BASE-T requirements. NETGEAR
recommends Category 5 UTP cable for all patch cables and work area cables to ensure that your
UTP patch cable rating meets or exceeds the distribution cable rating.
To wire patch panels, you need two Category 5 UTP cables with an RJ-45 connector at each end,
as shown in Figure C-3.
