Connecting and Using
Loop-Back Plugs
RJ-45 loop-back plugs are supplied in the adapter and upgrade module packages. A fiber loop-
back plug is available in a spare parts kit. Install these plugs in any unused RJ-45 or fiber port
on the adapter or module, as described in the following section. If the plug is not installed, you
may get a cable fault or reduced functionality on the adapter or module, depending on the
operating system you are running.
RJ-45 Loop-Back Plug
Each kit for the NC3134 adapter and the NC3135 upgrade module contains a loop-back plug.
This loop-back plug consists of a single RJ-45 connector on a truncated cable. After you install
the adapters in the server and connect the server to the network, insert this plug into any unused
10/100 ports on either the adapter or the upgrade module. For example, if you install an NC3135
upgrade module in an NC3134 adapter and connect two ports to the network, you may have up
to two unused ports. In this example, you should insert the provided loop-back plugs into the
unused ports.
In addition, you can use the loop-back plug to diagnose the status of the adapter port without the
adapter being on a live network. When you insert the loop-back plug into the port, the LNK
LED for the port will light if the adapter port is operational, indicating that the link is
established.

Using UTP Category 5 Cable in Gigabit over Copper Installations
For Gigabit over copper installations, UTP Category 5 or better 1000BASE-T cable must
comply with the IEEE 802.3ab 1000BASE-T standard. For new installations, Category 5e
(enhanced Category 5) or better cable is recommended.
Specifications C-5
RJ-45 Pinouts and Crossover Function
10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, and 1000BASE-T are keyed systems to differentiate between voice
and data transmissions, in order to keep them separate over twisted-pair cable. The Ethernet
standard also specifies that each cable segment implement a crossover function to connect the
transmitter of one device to the receiver of a device at the other end, and vice-versa. The
crossover function may be implemented internally at the hub or switch, or externally, through
the twisted-pair media.
10/100 Straight-Through Pinouts
If the crossover function is implemented internally, the port is labeled MDI-X (Medium
Dependent Interface–Crossover). When an MDI-X port is connected to an MDI port, the twisted

Gigabit over Copper Internal Straight-Through Pinouts
Unlike some connections in which the crossover function is implemented internally at the hub
or switch, the NC7132 upgrade module provides its own automatic cross-over function. This
means you can wire twisted-pair media straight-through for adapter-to-hub or switch or adapter-
NOTE: To operate at Gigabit speeds, all four pairs of wires must be terminated within the RJ-45
connector.
