Current Cabling Solution 1 Solution 2
Cabling
Types
 CAT – 5 According to different
length between routers
and workstation, use a
proper cable for better
data transfer, such as
CAT-6 and CAT-7
cables. CAT 8.2 cable
will be better for
connecting network-
attached storage.
For 100-meter length
between devices use
CAT – 6 cables and for
50-meter length between
devices uses CAT-7
cables. CAT 8.2 cables
can be used for patch
cables for fast data
transfer. It has ISO/IEC
11801-1:2017 standard.
Standard cable reduce
fault in network.
Speed of
Cables
Category Speed Frequency
CAT 5 100Mbps 100MHz
CAT-6 cable can
transfer data up to 1000
Mbps speed with the
frequency 250 MHz
Speed of data transfer is
really matter. In case of
horizontal cable, use a
proper distance cable as
per the requirement,
such as CAT -6 for 100-
meter length ( Laven,
2016).
CAT- 7 cable can be
transfer data with the 10
Gbps speed with the 600
MHz frequency. Data
transfer Speed is required
but length is a barrier for
data transfer so used a
proper cable for data
transfer, according to
requirement. Data
transfer speed is also
depending on the
frequency of the cable.
