RJ-45 Connector
This connector is a standard connector commonly used for Ethernet. The 
StarFabric bridges use the RJ-45 connector with CAT5 cables for a 
board-to-board interconnect.
NI CardBus-8310-to-PXI Cable Options
A pair of CAT5-e cables are required to make a complete link: One cable 
to transmit data and one cable to receive data. You must install these cables 
in a pair. In addition, to meet the specified electromagnetic emissions 
standards, you must install the supplied ferrites on both ends of each cable, 
one ferrite per cable end.
The NI CardBus-8310-to-PXI is available with cables of various lengths. 
Table 1-1 shows the cables that are available from National Instruments.
