Cat 5 speeds up to 10/100 Mbps, frequencies up to 100MHz, and lengths up to 100m (328 feet). Cat 5 performance is formulated by TIA/EIA, which is an engineering standard developed by a group of individuals to provide manufacturers, enterprises and individuals with clear expectations of cable performance. These guidelines are market-related and are formed by many people from the telecommunications industry to manufacturers.
More specifically, the Cat5 cable speed is set by TIA/EIA 568-5-A. The standard was introduced in 1991.
With the advancement of technology, the Ethernet standard has been able to maximize the service life of the Ethernet cable category. UTP Cat5 Patch Cord Cables Suppliers
