CAT5e, short for Category 5 enhanced, is a twisted pair cable standard developed by the TIA & EIA.

Four wire pairs are twisted around each other within a protective sheeth. Twisted pair cables have largely won out over thick or thin coaxial cable because twisted pair cable is cheaper & easier to install.

The CAT5e standard was developed for use with 1000BASE-TX networks in mind. 1000BASE-TX uses all four of the wire pairs. CAT5e can be used in gigabit networks.

Cable runs should not exceed 100 meters (328feet).

CAT6, short for Category 6, is a twisted pair cable standard developed by the TIA & EIA.

CAT6 uses all four pairs of the cable and supports up to 1000Mbs Gigabit Ethernet. The construction of CAT6 cabling is similar to CAT5 and CAT5e, but the quality is better resulting in less crosstalk and other interference.

CAT6 costs more than CAT5 or CAT5e cabling, and few applications take advantage of the additional speed afforded by it. However, CAT6 may be worth considering if you are installing a network and you want to plan for the future.

Cable runs should not exceed 100 meters (328 feet).

• Maximize the number of devices available using existing Category 5 cabling system
• Operate up to 3 services per single Category 5 cable
• Enables rapid equipment deployment in disaster recovery situations
• Reduces disruption during network expansion
• Provides added capacity in difficult to cable buildings
• Plug and play installation ( Jack to Jack patch leads )
• IDC blocks suitable for permanent installation alternative
