Max pole length using cat 6e cable, what maximum heigth of pole is permissible. max distance from other transmitting device to avoid EMI
The cable standard provides performance of up to 250 MHz and is suitable for 10BASE-T / 100BASE-TX and 1000BASE-T / 1000BASE-TX (Gigabit Ethernet). It is expected to suit the 10GBASE-T
(10Gigabit Ethernet) standard, although with limitations on length if
unshielded Cat 6 cable is used. Category 6 cable can be identified by
the printing on the side of the cable sheath.
Cat5e is suitable for 10/100/1000baseT ethernet for 100 meters, when properly installed.
Cat 6 is also good for 10 gig ethernet for 37 meters, but that is pretty short, unless just in a server room.
There is no Cat 6e, but Cat 6A will be good for 10/100/1000/10GbaseT ethernet for 100 meters.
Unshielded
Twisted Pair has no ground shield around the wires. It is the standard
in the US, where most network standards were defined. There are
extensions to the standards to allow for the more common in Europe,
Shielded Twisted Pair.
Some Cat-6 cables are too large and may be difficult to attach to 8P8C
connectors without a special modular piece and are technically not
standard compliant. If components of the various cable standards are
intermixed, the performance of the signal path will be limited to that
of the lowest category. The maximum allowed length of a Cat-6 cable is
100 meters (330 ft) when used for 10/100/1000baseT and 37 meters
(120 ft) when used for 10GbaseT. This applies for UTP cables only.
Shielded Cat 6 and Cat 7 cables are capable of 100m.....sodeep
