A
Cables and Connectors
This appendix lists cables that have been tested and verified for use with the
HP Switching Hubs. It also includes minimum pin-out information so, if you
wish to use an unlisted cable, you can verify that the cables used in your
installation are correctly wired. Note that each pin-out does not necessarily
match the pin-out for the corresponding HP cable, but cables manufactured
to follow the minimum pin-out will function correctly.
Note
Incorrectly wired cabling is the most common cause of problems for LAN
communications. HP recommends that you work with a qualified LAN cable
installer for assistance with your cabling requirements.
