CAT Cable Wiring
We suggest both RJ45 connectors be wired identically using T568B wiring standard for the best performance and compatibility.

Both connectors must be wired identically, to T568B standard.

Note: You may use cat5Se, cat6 UTP (cat6 preferred) in conjunction with the RJ45 output; however for best performance use cat6a or cat7 (particularly in electrically noisy environments). The maximum distances & transmission performance for HDMI and USB may be compromised by cable quality, patch panels, poor termination, wall plates, cable kinks and electrical interferences. Generally ensure the cat cable is solid copper core of 23AWG (avoid CCA type). in one straight run (avoid/minimise patches) and avoid close proximity to any noisy electrical sources.
