Catalogue 6 cable (CAT 6)
Feature
• Cat 6 is used for structured cabling for computer networks such as Ethernet over twisted pair. Standard cabling offers performance to suitable for Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet.
• Cat 6 features more stringent specifications for crosstalk and system noise. The cable standard also specifies performance of up to 250 MHz.
