Ed, Try using a RJ 45 that has some built in Vitamin F. Also, review the routing to determine if the coupling structure can be changed in a rev of the board.

Internal box noise, as low as 35 MHz, is getting out along this path. I put a 4700 pF feedthrough capacitor on each of the four lines. That worked pretty well, so well that the Ethernet shut down. Does anyone have a guideline about how much capacitance, L-L & L-G, that is typically OK? Thanks in advance!
