You’ve seen the Cat designations, Cat5e and Cat6 and Cat6a. If you work in more powerful internet settings you might even be familiar with Cat7. The general rule is that a higher number is a newer technology and can support higher data rates. Cat5 operates at 100 MHz and can transfer data at speeds up to 1000 Mbps. Cat6 works at 250 MHz and can get up to 1 Gbps. Cat7 ups the ante substantially with 600 MHz and 10 Gbps rates. CAT 8 provides better frequency characteristics, therefore supporting higher speeds of data. It is capable of supporting bandwidths of up to 2 GHz (2000 MHz) for up to 100ft of cabling and supports 25Gbps/ 40Gbs speeds.
