Category-6 (Cat-6) cabling is used as the infrastructure for many types of Ethernet connections. These cables are compatible with earlier versions and can be used for up to 100 meters.
Yes
There is the USB cable and the twisted pair cable (Cat 5 and Cat 6) for networking.
Ethernet cable of cat 5e or cat 6 connected to modem or router
If you can use fiber optics. If not try to use CAT-5e at least, CAT-6 is recommended.
Cat 5, Cat 5e, Cat 6, Cat7
To the switch the router is just another host, so it connects with a straight Cat 5 or Cat 6 cable.
Category 6 cable, often abbreviated as Cat 6, is the next generation of the widely used Ethernet networking cables. Category 5, or Cat 5, is an almost universal standard in offices and residential areas where a wired network is required. Cat 6 ups the ante by providing faster and more reliable transmission rates than ever before. By eliminating line noise and crosstalk problems, Cat 6 cable can provide 250 MHz transmission speed with supreme accuracy. The only problem with Cat 6 cable is that with its higher standards for noise comes a lower maximum length. Cat 6 cable can only be counted on to provide optimum speeds in lengths less than 90 meters.
The Cable Cat 6 is an Ethernet cable that supports fast Ethernet 10G BASE-T. This cable is available in a 20 meter length online from various retailers including cabling4less.
100 meters for a cat-6 segment.
The best Ethernet cable is CAT-6 (UTP), if you have enough money you can get STP for better performance and stability.
YES it can
The modern Ethernet cable is a Category 5 UTP cable, with an RJ 45 connector.
