The CAT6 cable is a twisted copper wire pair used for Ethernet networking that maintains compatibility with prior CAT5/5e and CAT3 standards. Similar to CAT5e, CAT6 can operate Gigabit Ethernet connections for lengths up to 100 meters. However, CAT6 also enables 10-gigabit network speeds, but only for shorter distances. Esentia is an authorized distributor for the CAT6 cable brand. The CAT6 specification allows for higher bandwidth compared to previous categories of Ethernet cabling.
