Cat 7 Speed Vs Cat6. The ieee published a draft standard (std 802.3an) in october 2004. But how do these differ, and what cables should you buy?
Cat 7 uses modified gigagate 45 connectors. Here we look at the difference between cat5, cat6 and cat7 kinds of ethernet cables. Cat6 wiring can support up to 10 gbps and frequencies of up to 250 mhz.
The most important parameters are maximum transmission speed, shielding, the supported distance and price.

However, even the cat5e cable in common use supports up to 1 gb/s. But how do these differ, and what cables should you buy?
