What's Cat5e and Cat6 cable?

· Cat-5e: This form of cable is recognized by the TIA/EIA and is defined in TIA/EIA-568, being last revised in 2001.

It has a slightly higher frequency specification than the Cat-5 cable, as the performance extends up to 125 Mbps.

Cat-5e can be used for 100Base-T and 1000Base-t (Gigabit Ethernet). Cat 5e standard for Cat 5 enhanced 

and it is a form of Cat 5 cable manufactured to higher specifications, although physically the same as Cat 5. 

It is tested to a higher specification to ensure it can perform at higher data speeds. 

The twisted pairs within the cables tend to have the same level of twisting as the Cat 5 cables.

· Cat-6: This cable is defined in TIA/EIA-568-B and significantly improves performance over Cat5 and Cat 5e.

Cat 6 cables are more tightly wound during manufacture than Cat 5 or Cat 5e and often have an outer foil or braided shielding.

The shielding protects the twisted pairs of wires inside the Ethernet cable, helping to prevent crosstalk and noise interference.

Cat-6 cables can technically support speeds up to 10 Gbps but can only do so for up to 55 meters.

What is Cat 5 & Cat 6 Security Camera Systems？

Cat 5 or Cat 6 security cameras are commonly known as PoE IP cameras (power over Ethernet cameras),

or Ethernet security cameras, which only need a single Ethernet network cable to transmit data and power to cameras/systems.

The Ethernet IP security camera wiring diagram is shown below to get a better idea.

POE, referred to as Power-over-Ethernet (often referred to as PoE), is a technology that provides electrical power over standard Ethernet cables

(Cat5e,cat6 or similar: https://www.zion-communication.com/network-cable-products-caalog.html)

in most cases providing the power delivery simultaneously with the data signals sent from one device to another.

For example, a CCTV camera requires a data cable and an external power supply - from two separate cables. 

However, a PoE-enabled camera will receive data and power over the same network cable from a network / PoE switch or the system's NVR. Therefore reducing time and cost.

How to Choose Cat 5/Cat 6 Cables for IP Cameras？

Currently, the Cat5e cable is more than enough bandwidth for most IP security cameras on the market.

This makes it an excellent choice for most surveillance installs. Almost all IP security cameras currently use less than 100/Mbps bandwidth, making cat5e a correct choice.
