Category 3/Category 4/Category 5 UTP Cable Comparison

Category 5 UTP cable is the most common type of UTP cable in use today for data communications, such as for

10BASE-T Ethernet. Many installations, however, have some or all desktop PCs connected using Category 3 or

Category 4 UTP. The chart below compares these common cable types:

Cable Type

Manufac. Specs

Cat. 3 UTP

up to 20 MHz

Cat. 4 UTP

up to 33 MHz

Cat. 5 UTP

up to 100 MHz

100BASE-T4 Connector Pin Out

100BASE-T4 utilizes 4 pairs of wire in a Category

3, 4 or 5 UTP bundle. 100BASE-T4 connections

from a hub to a PC are normally straight-through
