Cat Cables Key for Computer Network Connection

Cat cables bandwidth is the frequency range that it can accommodate for data transmission. Cat cables are categorized into different levels, and each has a varying level of bandwidth. For example, Cat5e has a bandwidth of up to 100 MHz, which is enough for 1 Gigabit Ethernet connections. Rotating 10 Gigabit Ethernet over Distance, supporting up to 250 MHz is Cat6. The frequency becomes 500 MHz on Cat6a which offers 10 Gigabit Ethernet further reliable over longer lengths. Simultaneous data readings is dependent on the bandwidth, therefore, higher bandwidth leads to faster speeds. As demand for networks put pressure on existing networks, bandwidth increases must be placed on systems to adapt for device performance. Each Cat cable should be considered with its corresponding bandwidth.
