Guest guest Posted May 19, 2007 Posted May 19, 2007 its basically a better cable than cat 5 or 5e...allows for faster speed...should be no biggie...i have a few cat 6 patch cords that i used while testing in my living room and it worked fine
Guest guest Posted May 19, 2007 Posted May 19, 2007 Cat6 is more expensive than Cat5 because it is rated for higher speeds. If you're buying some just for LOR don't waste your money on it.

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2007 Posted May 19, 2007 i used it last year and no problems i didnt buy it i used scrap from a job that we installed
Guest guest Posted May 20, 2007 Posted May 20, 2007 I would make sure that it is not more expensive because even if it can handle higher speeds you will essentially have a lot of unused capacity. It may be able to handle it, but the Christmas software packages we all use cannot send it at those speeds.Ken
