2. Category 6 cable - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category_6_cable

   A Cat 6 patch cable, terminated with 8P8C modular connectors. Category 6 cable (Cat 6) is a standardized twisted pair cable for Ethernet and other network physical layers that is backward compatible with the Category 5/5e and Category 3 cable standards. Cat 6 must meet more stringent specifications for crosstalk and system noise than Cat 5 and ...

3. Patch cable - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patch_cable

   A patch cable, patch cord or patch lead is an electrical or fiber-optic cable used to connect ("patch in") one electronic or optical device to another for signal routing. Devices of different types (e.g., a switch connected to a computer, or a switch to a router ) are connected with patch cords.

4. Twisted pair - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twisted_pair

   Solid core cable is intended for permanently installed runs (permanent link). It is less flexible than stranded cable and is more prone to failure if repeatedly flexed due to work hardening. Stranded cable is used at patch panels and for connections from wall ports to end devices (patch cord or drop cable), as it resists cracking of the conductors.

5. Patch panel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patch_panel

   A patch panel is a device or unit featuring a number of jacks, usually of the same or similar type, for the use of connecting and routing circuits for monitoring, interconnecting, and testing circuits in a convenient, flexible manner. Patch panels are commonly used in computer networking, recording studios, and radio and television.

6. Networking cable - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Networking_cable

   Devices of different types (e.g. a switch connected to a computer, or a switch connected to a router) are connected with patch cables. Patch cables are usually produced in many different colors so as to be easily distinguishable. [2] In contrast to structured cabling, patch cables are more flexible.

7. ANSI/TIA-568 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ANSI/TIA-568

   A cable terminated according to T568A on one end and T568B on the other is a crossover cable when used with the earlier twisted-pair Ethernet standards that use only two of the pairs because the pairs used happen to be pairs 2 and 3, the same pairs on which T568A and T568B differ. Crossover cables are occasionally needed for 10BASE-T and ...
