HKH Computers are experienced installers of
structured cabling solutions.
(a standardized cabling system designed to integrate voice,
data and video signals.) The entire cabling infrastructure
is presented on a patch panel.
To change the connectivity is as simple as
plugging the appropriate patch lead or adapter into the
relevant RJ45 port.
» Category
5e (ANSI / TIA / EIA 568-B) is a specification to support
performance characteristics up to 100 MHZ and data transfer
of up to 1 Gigabit per second.
» Cat
5e is a 4 pair high performance cable that consists of twisted
24 gauge copper conductors.
» Category
6 is a specification to support performance characteristics
over a gigabit per second and a bandwidth of 250 MHZ.
» CAT
6 is a 4 pair very high performance cable that consists
of 23 gauge copper conductors. Each pair is isolated from
the other pairs by an internal separator. The isolation
significantly improves the internal loss, return loss and
cross talk providing a better signal to noise ratio. Because
of its improved transmission performance and superior immunity
from external noise allows for higher reliability in current
applications and higher data rates for future applications.
CAT5e Vs Cat
6 Which one to choose?
When specifying which system to choose on your current network
requirement. And for the future proofing perspective, the
next generation of technology is constantly changing the
requirements of the network infrastructure. Whilst the cabling
is expected to last for at least 10 years the network hardware
will probably be replaced several times.
The general difference between category 5e
and category 6 is in the transmission performance, and speed.
Category 5e can support up to 1 GB/s and Category 6 can
support 1 GB/s 10 GB/s.
The cost implications of installing Category 6 cables will
be an extra 20-30% more. Category 6 patch leads will be
required which again cost more.
As Category 6 cables are thicker then category
5e cables, extra containment space is required. This will
increase the cost for larger Trunking, Tray or conduits.
