Why use Cat6 and not Cat5e?
If you
are currently running Cat5e then installing Category 6 cabling now will enable
you to make two technology leaps: to Gigabit Ethernet, and beyond. This will
prevent future disruption to your business, which will easily offset the
additional cost of installing Category 6 now. Enhanced Category 5 on the other
hand might not be capable of supporting technologies beyond Gigabit Ethernet
What benefits do you actually achieve by using Cat6?
Enhanced Category 5 offers a tightly controlled cabling infrastructure offering
a bandwidth of 100 MHz. This is currently sufficient to support data rates up to
1000 Mbps. Category 6 expands on this by setting an upper frequency limit of 200
MHz. This allows existing protocols to operate with more headroom and provides
the infrastructure to cope with future developments in data communication
technology. The higher frequency limit of 200 MHz is assured by specifying and
testing the products and the system up to 250 MHz. This requires manufacturers
to re-design their products completely, not just improve the performance of
existing products.
The IT manager today has a choice of using either Cat5 or Cat6
cable. While there is no protocol that demands the installation of a Cat6
infrastructure, the rapid rate of change in the IT industry means that, faced
with a new network, IT managers should consider future-proofing, and should
consider Cat6 rather than Cat 5. The reasons for this are:
Cat6 may
be the minimum cabling required to support 10 Gigabit Ethernet
Cat6
supports double the bandwidth of Cat5, and so offers a better option for
critical applications in the future
Computer network cabling
is a key element in any business environment, and Microhal recognize the
importance of a good quality data cabling installation
Whatever the requirements for your network infrastructure
Microhal
can offer a solution.
