Short for Category 5, network cabling that consists of
four twisted pairs of copper wire terminated by RJ45
connectors. Cat-5 cabling supports frequencies up to
100 MHz and speeds up to 1000 Mbps. It can be used for
ATM, token ring, 1000Base-T, 100Base-T, and 10Base-T
networking.
Computers hooked up to LAN s are connected using Cat-5
cables, so if you're on a LAN, most likely the cable
running out of the back of your PC is Category 5.
Cat-5 is based on the EIA/TIA 568 Commercial Building
Telecommunications Wiring Standard developed by the
Electronics Industries Association as requested by the
Computer Communications Industry Association in 1985.
