Hello,
I am "IEEE 802.3ab, ratified in 1999, defines gigabit Ethernet transmission over unshielded twisted pair (UTP) category 5, 5e, or 6 cabling and became known as 1000BASE-T. With the ratification of 802.3ab, gigabit Ethernet became a desktop technology as organizations could use their existing copper cabling infrastructure."
Implying that cat5e can be used at gigabit speeds. However, all the cat5e cable I can see in CPC says for 100MHz use only.
Is all cat5e cable suitable for gigabit speeds and if it is, why doesn't the CPC web site say so?
Or should I install cat6 instead?
Thanks, Stephen.
