It depends upon the speed and cable length you need. Cat5 cables are rated to 100 Mbps. Cat5e are rated to over 1 Gbps. I am using a Cat5 cables but they are 6 ft long and my max speed is 150 Mbps.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.From 5 to 8, the maximum speed is 1000 Mbps, which varies depending on the cables used in the whole network or between the source of the internet and the devices receiving the signal from it. The higher the CAT categories, the higher the transmission speed in Hz.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Since this is a Gigabit Ethernet switch, we would recommend using Cat5e or higher to ensure Gigabit link rates.
