nology is improving constantly. This is irrelevant to the wiring standards. • CATS is rated to 100Mbps, • CAT5E & CAT6 do 1000Mbps (aka gigabit), • CAT6A & CAT7 do 10000 Mbps (10 Gigabit aka "IOGBE"). These standards are quite established and settled. I have existing client networks running 10GBE wired data
