Ethernet cables (RJ45) are available in two versions - normal (terminated with connectors at both ends) and pigtail (connector on one end only) - and can be supplied in various lengths.
Normal
Cable assembly overview
For Ethernet cables with RJ45 connectors at both ends, the assembly consists of three parts:
-
Connector A: RJ45 plug, 8-pin male. Connects to the MRU.
-
Connector B: RJ45 plug, 8-pin male. Connects to the system output.
-
Cable (C): Standard cat5e/6 Ethernet cable (8 wires), type: T568A.
