What is the difference between cat5e and cat6 n/w cable?

Question

what is the difference between these two networking cables?
if we use cat 6 cable, does the networking fast will increse?
pls replay

Answer 1

Cat6 is thicker and rated at a higher frequency.
No, if you use Cat6 instead of Cat5e your network will not magically get faster. You have to use a faster physical link (eg 1Gbit Ethernet).

Answer 2

the adaptation is the flow of information (information superhighway velocity). Cat5 : 100Mbps Cat5e : 1000Mbps Cat6 : 2000Mbps approx. Cat6 may be the wisest selection with the aid of fact that's the 1st cable which has been redesigned with a various inner shape. each and all the 4 wires interior the cat6 cable are remoted via a longitudinal separator which reduces the crosstalk interior the cable meaning it will advance the innovations velocity.

Answer 3

The Cat 6 is rated for higher thought put and is used mostly in labs right now where huge amounts of data are pushed through continuously. Cat 5 is plenty good for home use unless you are running a major business operation. On a home set up you won't even notice the difference under normal conditions.

Answer 4

not much. number of twists per foot mostly. A better cable doesn't make the connection faster, a faster connection requires better cable. Putting a better cable on a slow connection won't speed it up, but putting a lower grade cable on a fast connection can cause errors, which slows it down. So if you have gigabit use 6, if you have 100tx, either will work.
