In-Wall Rated (CM) Solid Cat6 Ethernet Cable 1000 Feet

In-Wall Rated (CM) Solid Cat6 Ethernet Cable1000 Feet

(SKU: 160009)

The Cat 6 standard was first released in 2002 as part of the Telecommunications Industry Association’s TIA/EIA-568-B.2-1 document specification.  It is backwards compatible with Cat 3, Cat 5 and Cat 5e cable standards as well as with Cat 5 and Cat 5e cabling, Cat 6 cables consist of four unshielded twisted pairs (UTP) of copper wire terminated by RJ45 connectors.  Cat-6 Ethernet cable is used as the cabling infrastructure for 10BASE-T (Ethernet), 100BASE-TX (Fast Ethernet), 1000BASE-T (Gigabit Ethernet, or GbE) and 10GBASE-T (10-Gigabit Ethernet, or 10 GbE) networks. The Cat 6 standard provides performance of up to 550 MHz.

An Overview of Cable Ratings
