What does Cat6A mean, and how does it difer from other Ethernet categories (e.g., Cat5, Cat5e)?
Cat6A supports up to 10 Gbps speeds at 100 meters and improved crosstalk mitigation. In contrast, Cat5 or Cat5e typically supports up to 1 Gbps. Cat6A’s thicker insulation and tighter twists reduce electromagnetic interference, making it more reliable for higher-bandwidth applications.
