Product Information

Cat6 cable is a data cable that is constructed of Eight separate cores split into four pairs of colours. Thus, it is classified as a twisted pair data cable. The pairs are twisted together into colour groups. four pairs of different colours. The Cat6 cable pairs are a solid and a white/solid combination. In addition, the colours are Orange, Green, Blue, and Brown. What is the Cat6 speed?

The connector consists of eight core colours separated into four pairs, which are twisted together. The colour groups are Blue, Green, Orange and Brown. These match throughout the cable, module and patch panel. Therefore, regardless of the category of cable, transmission still occurs. What is Cat6e? Cat6 and Cat7 cables are different in several distinctive ways. Firstly, Cat7 cables have a more significant amount of shielding. Each pair of cores and the overall cable is shielded. In contrast, standard Cat6 is UTP or unshielded. There are Cat6 shielded versions, but only around the whole cable rather than the individual pairs.

Cat6 maximum distance is based on the same length of all structured cabling categories. Regardless of category, all structured cabling is ratified on its performance over a 90m permanent link. This link then allows for 5m Cat6 patch leads at each end. Also, a 100m direct link is permitted. Following structured cabling standards, Cat6 is not ratified for 10 Gigabit transmission speeds. However, this is based on the standard 90m limit. However, in some cases, it can achieve 10 Gigabit Ethernet up to 55m. This 55m length, however, is not part of the cabling standards, so when designing a new installation, a 10 Gigabit Ethernet requirement should be installed in Cat6a and above What is the maximum distance of Cat6?

The main difference between Cat6 and Cat6a is that Cat6a has a bandwidth of 500Mhz to 250Mhz, in essence, two and a half times the capacity. Cat6 had twice that of Cat5e. Cat6e is not officially a recognised standard of data cabling. It is not ratified by the standard boards regulating the structured cabling industry. However, some manufacturers construct and sell a Cat6e version of their cable. It is classified as Cat6 enhanced. In essence, it enhances the original capability of Cat6 from 250Mhz to an increased capability. It is constructed with greater shielding and twists. Generally, the claims are an increase to 500 or 550Mhz. This bespoke cable is more comparable to the ratified version of Cat6a. How much is Cat6 Cabling? Cat6 price per point?The shielded version is the same in many ways as its counterpart but with the addition of a foil shield around the cores of the cables underneath the outer sheath. This shield adds a layer of protection from external noise and EMI. Can I run HDMI over Cat6? A Cat 6 coupler is a through joiner where two plug ends of a Cat 6 cable are joined together through the coupler. However, these couplers generally result in signal loss and, therefore, are not recommended when extending Cat6 cables. Furthermore, it is not recommended when extending structured cabling in general. However, if an extension or temporary joint is required, then the inline joiners are a better solution. These result in less loss and better transmission speeds after joining. What is a Cat6 junction box?

RJ45 is the standard connection for structured cabling. The RJ45 connector is for categories from Cat5e through to Cat6a. Cat7 and above still take the basis of the RJ45 connector and add additional termination points. However, they all still plugin together. Furthermore, the cable twists and construction are different for better noise-to-signal ratio protection. The above results in a larger cable and bend radius Cat6 is the advanced category of the data cable to Cat5e. The main difference between cat5 and cat6 is that Cat6 has a bandwidth of 250Mhz, two and a half times the capacity. However, at the standardised 90m permanent link distance, they can only transmit 1 Gigabit Ethernet speeds. However, Cat6 is capable of 10 Gigabit Ethernet up to 55m, although this isn't a standard length for data cabling design considerations.Furthermore, at the standardised 90m permanent link, Cat6a can transmit 10 Gigabit Ethernet speeds. Although Cat6 is capable of 10 Gigabit Ethernet up to 55m, it isn't a standard length for data cabling design considerations. Therefore, when designing a network for 10 Gigabits, cat6a is always the starting point of choice. Cat6 vs Cat7: What's the difference between a Cat6 and Cat7 Ethernet cable? Furthermore, at 90m Cat6 is capable of transmitting 1 Gigabit Ethernet. In some cases and dependent on manufacturer Cat6, cables are capable of 10 Gigabit Ethernet up to 55m Initial enquirers are commonly based on a Cat6 price per-point request. However, several factors affect the Cat6 price per point. This can be the location, the building, the structure, available containment, etc. It also varies due to the number of outlets required. Cat6 comes in various constructions. There is an external option and also an exterior steel armoured covered version. For internal Cat6 cables, there is an Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) and a Shielded Twisted Pair Cat6 (STP) cable.

Cat6 cabling can transmit Gigabit Ethernet up to 90m for a permanent link. This link is from the patch panel to the module. Furthermore, 5m patch leads can be used at each end. Also, a 100m direct link is allowed. Can Cat6 Run 10 Gigabit Ethernet? Cat6 and Cat5e systems will each have the same termination standards. Furthermore, this will be for the cable cores, core colours, patch panels, modules, and termination plugs. Therefore, all Cat6 elements will plug into Cat5e systems and vice versa. However, the performance of the overall cabling system will only be as good as its weakest part. Thus, plugging Cat6 components into a Cat5e system will only retain the performance of a Cat5e link. Furthermore, plugging Cat5e elements into a Cat6 link will reduce it to a Cat5e performance. How to differentiate Cat5 and Cat6?Besides, with these testers you can't tell the quality of installation and the quality of terminations of the modules and panels. Thus, it is imperative all structured cabling should be tested with a Cable Certification tester. One such tester would be the Fluke DSX .
