Gigabit network scenario: When supporting the 1000BASE-T (Gigabit Ethernet) standard, its standard transmission distance is 100 meters. This distance complies with the requirements of the comprehensive cabling standards. Among them, the length of the horizontal cabling (permanent link) usually does not exceed 90 meters, and the total length of the link (channel length) after adding the terminal patch cords does not exceed 100 meters, which can ensure stable signal transmission without obvious attenuation and crosstalk.
In 10-gigabit network scenarios: If the 10GBASE-T (10-Gigabit Ethernet) standard is to be supported, the transmission distance of Category 6 network cables will be significantly reduced, with a maximum of only 55 meters under ideal crosstalk conditions. If the crosstalk interference in the wiring environment is significant, the effective transmission distance will be further reduced to approximately 33 meters.
Once the corresponding standard distance is exceeded, the signal attenuation and distortion of Category 6 network cables will increase significantly. This not only leads to a decrease in transmission rate and an increase in packet loss rate, but may also fail to meet the corresponding network standard indicators, and even cause the equipment to be unable to communicate normally. If there is a need for long-distance transmission, the distance can be extended in segments by installing switches, Repeaters and other equipment, or directly upgraded to Category 6A or Category 7 network cables. For ultra-long-distance scenarios, optical fiber transmission is more suitable.
