Can You This Cable On A Cat6 Keystone?

Hello Alfreda Robb,This cable will work. Cat6 is backwards compatible with Cat5e.Please let me know if you have any further questions.Thank you,Taylor W.VIVO

Yes, you can use Cat 5 cable with a Cat 6 connector. The category classification refers to the quality of the cable. The higher the number, the higher the bandwidth the cable is rated at. Cat 5 is for rated for 100 MHz and Cat 6 is rated for 200 MHz. All you're doing is using a higher grade connector with a lower grade cable. The color code and AWG is the same for Cat 5 and Cat 6.

Yes, I am using it over shielded cat 6. However anything that will work over cat 5 will work over cat 6. the wiring pin out on both is the same. The primary difference between cat 5 and 6 is shielding and other standards to allow longer data line runs.

yes. a cat 6 cable (vs. 5e) may give marginally better speed and distance, but in a 3-foot cable, I don't believe it will make any noticeable difference. Your router and service provider will most likely give you much less bandwidth/speed than you can push through this cable. Back when I did this kind of work, category 4 could go 300 feet.

Yes, Cat 5e and 6 use similar technology. Plugging either connector on will work. You won't be cat 6 compliant. But yes it will work. Do a quick search on the difference between them (cable size, etc). One important thing to remember is that a gigabit connection uses all 4 pair of wire. So, don't use 1 pair of the wires as a telephone connection as a way to cheat pulling a whole other cable.

yes, but the area behind the face plate when mounted will need to be able to have room for all the cat 5 or 6 cable

you can use a cat6 cable up to 750 and it will work also you need a Balun. converts from copper to BNC. the cat6 cable has 8 copper cable so it provides power video data.

Yes basically all cat 5 or cat 6 will support POE. POE only uses two wires that aren't used for networking.

Yes it will I am using the same connector at a new facility we are working on at the present time with cat-6.

yes this will do what u need the other type is cat 6 which would be a waste for you

Cat6 uses a thicker copper and insulation to help reduce near end cross talk and the staggered ends of the new plugs take this into account as opposed to Cat5e jacks which are flat. Hope this helps :-)

I use a cat 5e cabling, It works just fine for me. I have never heard of Cat 6: is it even out there yet?

I don't see why not--it's just an Ethernet bridge. Ethernet cable goes in one module, comes out the other one.

No , you need to run a sepret Ethernet cord . One of the best cords is a cat 6

Hi Donald, Cat 5e cable should be capable of supporting 1000BASE-T (Gigabit) connections. Unless you've got incredibly easy runs to replace and money to burn, you'd probably be better off keeping the existing cable.

the widest part of the pinhole is at best 3/8" wide. I can imagine a Cat6 and a thin power cable. A 3rd cable with the mentioned combo I don't see possible. No chance for a standard "PC power cable" to fit through that pinhole as an example.

Cat5 and Cat6 are different cables. This cable could either be buried (no conduit required) or left on a surface. I would expect that sun exposure would damage the cable more.

I do not see any reason you couldn't use it. Cat 6 is just a higher speed cable because it has more twists. Cat 5&6 use the same rj45 connector. They also have the same amount of conductors.
