Review on ๐Ÿ”Œ Enhance Networking Efficiency with Cable Matters 5-Color Combo Snagless Short Cat6 Ethernet Cable - 5 ft by Joshua Follansbee

Revainrating 5 out of 5

CAT5 vs CAT 5e vs CAT6

----------CAT5----------Cat 5 is the slowest of the group. It can operate at speeds of 10/100 Mbit/s (Fast Ethernet) with a bandwidth of up to 100 MHz. ----------- CAT5e ---------- Cat 5e (upgraded Cat 5) is currently the most commonly used in new installations. A step above Cat 5, it can support 1000Mbps (Gigabit Ethernet) at 100MHz. ----------- CAT6 ---------- Category 6 is a significant improvement over Cat 5e. It's really just a bee's knee. It is suitable for Ethernet up to 10 Gigabit at 250 MHz. To further solve the problem of annoying crosstalk, the Cat 6 cable has an internal splitter that isolates the pairs from each other. For those looking to future-proof their home or commercial network without significantly increasing costs, Cat 6 is an excellent choice.
