Cables made of copper wires that are twisted
Twisted Pair Cable around each other and are surrounded by a plastic
jacket (such as traditional home phone wire).
Unshielded Twisted Pair Networking cable that has four twisted pairs of
(UTP) copper wire and a flexible outer coating.
What is the minimum category of twisted-pair cable
Category 5
you need to support 100 Mbps?
A popular category of twisted pair that supports
speeds up to 100 Mbps. It is now the minimum
Category 5e
recognized cable category for data transmission in
ANSI/TIA-568-C.
A popular category of twisted pair that supports
speeds up to 1000 Mbps. Its intended use is for
Category 6
Gigabit Ethernet and other future high-speed
transmission rates.
Was officially recognized with the publication of
ANSI/TIA/EIA-568-B.2-10 in February 2008. In
Category 6a addition to more stringent performance
requirement it also extends the usable bandwidth to
500MHz.
