This length includes patch panels and cables. These standards specify a maximum segment length of 100 meters (328 feet) between two devices. This illustration shows the differences between the 568A and 568B color schemes: The orange and green pairs are interchanged as shown here. It is always advisable to check the specification for any given project and make sure that If a wiring scheme is specified, it is adhered to. This scheme provides one pair for backward compatibility to the USOC wiring scheme. N-Tron adopted the 568B standard since it is the most widely used in Industrial Ethernet installations. Government regulations require the use of 568A standard wiring installed under federal contracts. Functionally there is no difference between a straight through 568A to 568A cable and a straight through 568B to 568B cable. There are three popular wiring patterns for Cat5e and RJ-45 cables: 568A, 568B, and a crossover cable with 568A on one end and 568B on the opposite end. Each pair is easily identified by one of four primary colors and is intended to carry a signal and its return. In this case, the 568A has the advantage of having a more natural progression of pairs at the punch block side.Ĭables are generally made up of 8 wires twisted together in 4 pairs.
The only instance one scheme has an advantage over the other is when one end of a segment is connected to a modular device and the other end to a punch block. There is no difference between the two wiring schemes, in connectivity or performance, when connecting Ethernet devices provided the devices are wired for the same scheme. These two color codes are approved by the American National Standard Institute/Telephone Industry Association/Electronics Industry Association (ANSI/TIA/EIA) wiring standards. The two color code schemes used to correctly wire the RJ-45 eight-position modular plugs are 568A and 568B. Instructions for creating standard and crossover cables are included in this document. It will also define the differences between these standards. This document provides basic background information regarding the 568A and 568B wiring standards.
