Category 6 (Cat 6) is a widely adopted standard in copper structured cabling systems. With a bandwidth of up to 250 MHz and support for data rates of 1 Gbps over 100 meters, Cat 6 is ideal for most enterprise and commercial networking needs. It also supports 2.5GBASE-T for environments requiring slightly higher speeds without a complete infrastructure overhaul.
