. These cables are used for computer networking and are an improved version of Cat5e cables.
Cat6 cables support speeds up to 10 Gbps for a limited distance and up to 1 Gbps for a standard distance of 100 meters.
They are a common choice for both home and business networks due to their performance and reliability.
Cat6 cables have stricter specifications for crosstalk and system noise compared to older standards like Cat5e.
The cables are typically terminated with an 8P8C modular connector, commonly known as an RJ45 connector.
