Category 6 (Cat 6) cables have been designed specifically for Gigabit Ethernet
applications. They deliver improved performance over standard Category 5e (Cat 5e)
cables. ADVA Optical Networking strongly recommends using Cat 6 cable for Gigabit
Ethernet over copper installations. Cat 6 is backward compatible with Cat 5e, Cat 5, and
Cat 3 cable standards. Cat 5e and Cat 6 cables support full duplex communication.
The eight wires inside the Cat 5e and Cat 6 cables are twisted into four wire pairs.
