However, this made Cat6 cables more rigid newer cables use other methods to reduce noise and are more flexible. This was often achieved using a spline (a longitudinal separator) in the wiring, which isolates each of the four pairs of twisted wire. Cat5e, in contrast, performs up to 100 MHz. The specification for Cat6 features more stringent specifications for crosstalk and system noise, and provides performance of up to 250 MHz.

Your computer uses these to talk to other computers - network Cat5e and Cat6 cables Wiringīoth Cat5e and Cat6 are twisted pair cables that use copper wires, typically 4 twisted pairs in each cable.
