Networking Cables (Cat 6)
Networking Cables (Cat 6)
Overview
Category 6 (Cat 6) cable is a twisted pair Ethernet cable used for networking and data transfer. It is backward compatible with Cat 5 and Cat 5e but offers improved performance and bandwidth, supporting frequencies up to 250 MHz and data transfer rates up to 1 Gbps over 100 meters (or up to 10 Gbps over shorter distances).
