10/100BASE-TX Ethernet interface card
The 10/100BASE-TX Ethernet interface card has a single RJ-45 connector that 
provides the signals needed to interface to 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX Ethernet 
equipment.

The 10/100BASE-TX Ethernet interface card for the VPN Router 1100 looks very 
similar to

Depending on whether you use the interface for 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX 
operation, select cables for the interface as follows:
100BASE-TX connections require Category 5 twisted-pair wire. The 
100BASE-TX specification supports 100 Mb/s transmission over two pairs of 
Category 5 twisted-pair Ethernet wiring: one pair each for transmit and 
receive operations.
