Re: Twinax Hub

When we were using Twinax hubs (StarTek panels), we could only plug in RJ11 plugs; the other end was RJ-45 and plugged into our distribution panels. On these panels only the center 2 positions of the plugs were used. I don't think it mattered if the cables were crossover or not, but the center 2 positions of the plugs was the key.

Hey all
We've got a Twinax Hub (an NBase 5250 Active Star) that works with RJ-11 cables. I can physically plug RJ-45 cables in, but I can't get any twinax screens to work unless I'm using RJ-11. The RJ-11 cables I have are way too short for what I need, and I can't make up any new ones. I can make up RJ-45 - is it likely that the hub simply doesn't work with RJ-45, or is there just a different way of wiring it up?
