Category 6 Cabling - A Standards and Systems Overview - TIA Category 6 Consortium

  • 

Cat3 (Category 3) - Unshielded twisted pair with 100 ohm impedance and electrical characteristics supporting transmission at frequencies up to 16 MHz. May be used with 10Base-T, 100Base-T4, and 100Base-T2 Ethernet. (Obsolete)

  • 

Cat5 (Category 5) - Unshielded twisted pair with 100 ohm impedance and electrical characteristics supporting transmission at frequencies up to 100 MHz. May be used with 10Base-T, 100Base-T4, 100Base-T2, and 100Base-TX Ethernet. May support 1000Base-T, but cable should be tested. (Superceded by Cat5e)

  • 

Cat5e (Category 5e) - "Enhanced Cat 5" exceeds Cat 5 performance. Very similar to Cat 5, it has improved specifications for NEXT (Near End Cross Talk), PSELFEXT (Power Sum Equal Level Far End Cross Talk), and Attenuation. May be used for 10Base-T, 100Base-T4, 100Base-T2, 100BaseTX and 1000Base-T Ethernet. (Minimum acceptable wiring grade)

  • 

Cat6 (Category 6) - Unshielded twisted pair with 100 ohm impedance and electrical characteristics supporting transmission at frequencies up to 100 MHz. May be used with 10Base-T, 100Base-T4, 100Base-T2, and 100Base-TX Ethernet. May support 1000Base-T, but cable should be tested.
