Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach us at 480.766.0025 if you cannot find an answer to your question.

Cat 6 is a type of Ethernet cabling that supports data transfer rates of up to 10 Gigabits per second (Gbps) over distances of up to 55 meters. It is an improvement over Cat 5 and Cat 5e cabling, which support lower data transfer rates and shorter distances. Cat 6 cabling provides faster and more reliable network connections, making it ideal for businesses that require high-speed internet and LAN connectivity.


The number of Cat 6 drops required for a business depends on the size of the building, the number of network devices, and the specific needs of the business. It is recommended to have at least one drop per office or workstation, and additional drops for conference rooms, common areas, and server rooms. The drops should be strategically placed to minimize cable runs and ensure maximum coverage.


The cost of installing Cat 6 cabling for a business varies depending on the size of the building, the number of drops required, and the specific needs of the business. The cost typically ranges from a few hundred to several thousand dollars. The time required to complete the project depends on the complexity of the installation and the number of drops required.


While it is possible to install Cat 6 cables yourself, it is recommended to hire a professional network technician to ensure that the cabling and network infrastructure are installed and configured correctly for your specific business needs. This can help avoid common mistakes and ensure the highest quality of network connectivity.


Best practices for running Cat 6 cables in a commercial building include using plenum-rated cables for areas with air ducts, avoiding cable runs near sources of electromagnetic interference, and ensuring that cables are not kinked or twisted. Common pitfalls include using low-quality cables and connectors, running cables too close to power cables, and exceeding the maximum distance for data transfer.


The tools and supplies needed to terminate Cat 6 cables include Cat 6 connectors, a crimping tool, a cable stripper, and a cable tester. To use them, strip the cable jacket, arrange the wires according to the T568B or T568A standard, insert them into the connector, and use the crimping tool to secure the connector. Finally, use the cable tester to ensure that the connection is working properly.


To future-proof your Cat 6 cabling infrastructure, use high-quality cables and connectors, ensure that the cables are properly terminated and tested, and install more drops than you currently need. Additionally, consider upgrading to Cat 6a
