Category 5 Cabling System: Engineering for Performance
Overview Choosing a cabling system has never seemed more complicated. Just as most of the issues concerning Category 5 have been resolved, along come standards proposals for Enhanced Category 5, Category 6 and Category 7; even proprietary classification schemes for cabling performance. Just when we were getting comfortable with the concept of implementing 100 Mbps data rates on twisted pair cable, along comes the possibility of achieving one gigabit per second over copper cable. This paper addresses the AMP NETCONNECT Enhanced Category 5 Cabling System. We'll look at what makes Enhanced Category 5 "enhanced", how this system compares to the standard for Category 5e, and why you should consider specifying Enhanced Category 5 as the minimum cabling system of choice for your business.
