Voice and Data Cable Planning

Cat5 versus Cat5e, Cat6

Typical Cat5 cable is designed to support 10BASE-T and 100BASE-T network speeds, which are generally the norm. This means Cat5 cable will support 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps. However, most businesses choose to install Cat5e, which is a special version of Cat5 cable that improves the ability of the cable to prevent cross talk.

Crosstalk is when the signal in one cable bleeds to another cable in close proximity to it. This generally reduces the performance of the cable.

And of course, if you ever plan to implement any form of Gigabit ethernet, the Cat5e is an obvious choice as Cat5e is rated up to 350Mhz.

Cat6 cable adds the “Gigabit Certification”. Cat6 is also better in areas where interference might be a problem. If your cable might be near power lines, light ballasts or heavy equipment. Still for most applications, Cat5e is suitable and desired.
