Difference between cat5e and cat6 cables?
The general difference between
CAT 5e and
CAT 6 is in the transmission performance, and extension of the obtainable bandwidth from 100 MHz for CAT 5e to 200 MHz for CAT 6. This includes better insertion loss, near finish crosstalk (NEXT), return loss, and equal level far finish crosstalk (ELFEXT). These improvements provide a higher signal-to-noise ratio, allowing higher reliability for current applications and higher information rates for future applications.
CAT 5e Features:
- Enhanced "staggered" Cat5 RJ45 Connectors
