Cat6 ethernet cable speed.

Commercial electric 3 ft. Normally it supports a maximum transmission speed up to 1 gbps within 100m. Although the spline is not required in cat 5 cable some manufactures include it anyway. Thus it s quite suited for environments with higher electromagnetic interference.

The cost is about 20 35 higher than cat6 but the maximum cable length is 100 meters across all systems and conditions for gigabit ethernet. However it provides you with much more functionality. The cable standard specifies performance of up to 250 mhz compared to 100 mhz for cat 5 and cat 5e. Category 6 cable cat 6 is a standardized twisted pair cable for ethernet and other network physical layers that is backward compatible with the category 5 5e and category 3 cable standards.

A cat6 cable has a bandwidth capacity of 250 mhz for example and it offers you speeds of up to 10 gbps. It consists of four pairs of copper wire which supports up to 10 gbps of ethernet connection. Cat6 cable is otherwise called category 6 ethernet cable. It s theoretical top speed is 10 gbps over 100 meters.

Cat 6 has to meet more stringent specifications for crosstalk and system noise than cat 5 and cat 5e. Many cat 6 cables also include a nylon spline which helps eliminate crosstalk. And it can be capable of 10gbps speed under ideal circumstances. Micro connectors inc 100 ft.

Cat6 cables also called category 6 or cat 6 cables provide lower crosstalk a higher signal to noise ratio and are suitable for 10gbase t 10 gigabit ethernet while cat5e cables support only up to 1000base t gigabit ethernet. Cat5e and cat6 cables are both backwards.

A cat6 cable is similar to a cat5 ethernet cable it consists of four pairs of twisted copper wire. Cat 6 supports 10 gigabit ethernet only up to 164 feet of cable length. The category 6 augmented cable standard or cat 6a was created to further improve the performance of cat 6 ethernet cables using cat 6a enables 10 gigabit ethernet data rates over a single cable run up to 328 feet. Cat6 is certified to handle gigabit speed with a bandwidth of up 250mhz.

As a means of future proofing your network cat6 is generally a better choice and worth the small premium in price. Set your store to see local availability add to cart. In the picture above the cat 5e cable is the only one with a spline. 24 7 gauge 8 wire cat6 ethernet cable white model 587528 3 4 97 4 97.
