Transmission speeds of UTP cable?

* Category 1: Traditional telephone cable (voice but no data transmission) * Category 2: Data transmission up to a maximum of 4 Mbit/s (RNIS). This type of cable contains 4 twisted pairs * Category 3: 10 Mbit/s maximum. This type of cable contains 4 twisted pairs and 3 twists per foot * Category 4: 16 Mbit/s maximum. This type of cable contains 4 copper twisted pairs * Category 5: 100 Mbit/s maximum. This type of cable contains 4 copper twisted pairs * Category 5e: 1000 Mbit/s maximum. This type of cable contains 4 copper twisted pairs


What is the highest transmission speed attainable using the best twisted-pair cable?

The maximum is 1 Gbps (CAT-5e, CAT-6), the maximum distance without attenuation is 100 m.


What is the maximum speed of data cat5 cable?

The transmission speed of the cable is limited in most cases by the hardware attached to it. Cat5 basic cable has been used successfully up to 1 gigabit speed using ethernet. There have been lab tests proving it might be useful for 10gigabit over short ranges but usually that requires Cat5e or Cat6 grade cable. The most common speeds are 10/100 mb ethernet.


Is it ok to use 100 feet of cat 6 cable?

How can you tell the cat level of a cable?

You can tell the CAT level (or category) of a cable by looking for imprinted markings along the length of the cable. Look for the number preceded by 'CAT.' That is the category of the cable.


What is the minimum category of twisted pair cabling that should be used to support networking?

What is the difference between Cat 2 verses cat 3 cable?

Cat 2 cable was rated at 4 or 16 mbps whereas cat 3 cable would be rated at 10 mbps. Since 10baseT networks with Ethernet ran at 10 mbps this meant that cat 2 cable would not be useable in those networks. The minimum category cable for those networks had to be at least a cat 3 cable.
