Cat3 is capable of delivering easy to read Material.
The maximum length of a Cat3 Ethernet cable that can be used for networking purposes is 100 meters.
Phone
Telephone is Cat3 while the cable coming form the modem is Cat5
Category 3 (Cat3) is a type of unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable. Category 3 refers to specifications that describes an ability to operate at frequencies of up to 16MHz. It was the cable of choice in the early days of twisted-pair Ethernet since it was designed to reliably transmit up to 10Mbit/sec. Though now eschewed in the Ethernet world in favor of Cat5e and Cat6, Cat3 still makes a very useful cable for telephone and Voice-over-IP applications.
Which of the UTP cable categories is recommended as 100Base T media? CAT2,CAT3,CAT4,CAT5
Usually Cat5 is most common, however other methods existed previously to do that such as Cat3, or coaxial cable with vampire taps and etc.
100Base-T network require usually cat5 maximum of cable length 100 meters to 380meters.
Using UTP or STP cable, 100 meters per segment.
Yes. CAT6 may be overkill, but it will definately work. Analog phones are used most oten on CAT3 because they are both old technologies.
Answer This is 1mb broadband through ADSL
The max speed is 100mb on Cat3 cable. We have it here and have hooked a fluke up to it as well as plugged a laptop directly in switch at a gig speed.
the strength is steel and the weakness is its weight
