Cat5e cable

[DazCandy]

Can all cat5e cable support up to 1000mbps?

yes. it can support 1Gbps

[Bloodyvalley]

Yes.

[DazCandy]

I just bought this and it says 100/155? I don't get it

It should still work at 1gbps as long as it's under 100m in length per cable. That might be some different rating or something.

yes it could be the router or the computer port only supports 150Mb it happens in older computers

here's the cable, is it really 1000mbps? i will need to return it if it isnt haha

Hmm, I guess it's rated for those speeds then, but I don't think it should have trouble handing gigabit either with that length.

[DazCandy]

guess i will try my luck on this one, it better be gigabit  :angry:  :angry:

[DazCandy]

fk me. Does this mean it is only rated for 100mbps? my connection is suppose to be 200mbps

Your connection is supposed to be 200mbps, but it may be slower. So you have a fast cable but slow internet

[DazCandy]

argh gotta call the isp then. so i assume the cable is cable of handling gigabit connection?

If you have another cable you could try that is rated for gigabit you could try it. You might also have like a router or something that doesn't support more than 100mbps. The cable not going over 100mbps would be unlikely because no cat5e cable would have any kind of limiting in it...

How about an STP cable, those should be able to push gigabit speeds, UTP is unlikely.

200Mbps designated by the ISP is only in theory. In reality you won't always get that speed. The cable has nothing to do with it, however it should be able to handle a 1Gbps connection with that short distance.

It's probably your router. Does it have Gig ports or 10/100?

[Ginz]

Check to see if your LAN interface is running at 100mbps or 1Gbps (in your Network and Sharing Center if you are on Windows).

You don't need STP to achieve gigabit speeds. UTP is fine, it's whats most commonly used.
