Fast Ethernet Wiring

The 100BASE-TX specification supports 100 Mbps transmission over two pairs of Category 5 twisted-pair Ethernet (TPE) wiring. One pair is for transmit operations and the other for receive operations. Segment lengths are limited to 100 meters with 100BASE-TX for signal timing reasons. This complies with the EIA 568 wiring standard.
