Shielding of individual signal or power pairs is 
not required because most V1.0 controllers and 
transceivers are DC-coupled. The overall AUI 
cable shield provides for shielding and grounding 
and is connected to pin 1 and the AUI connector 
shell.
In practice, most Ethernet V1.0 equipment uses 
version 2.0 cables due to cross-talk problems 
caused by the lack of individual shielding of the 
pairs in Version 1.0 cables.
Wire Sizes
The three versions of AUI cables also use differ-
ent wire sizes for the signal and power pairs. 
Table 7 describes the wiring that each type of 
transceiver cable uses.
