Description:

The Cat6 cable is an advancement on long standing networking cable: Cat5e. It advances on Cat5e cable by having a higher twist rate and having better performance against near end crosstalk. They are very similar in function but Cat5e and Cat6 do have their differences. Cat6 cable has a performance spec of:

250MHz Data Transmission

1Gb Data Rate

Channel Length of 328 Feet (100 meters)

Performance tested to 550MHz

You’ll often find Cat6 cables coming in 23 to 24AWG sizes. Also coming in unshielded, shielded, outdoor, riser, stranded and plenum types. Just about anywhere you want to run the cable Category 6 will have an option for you.
