Overview:

This white paper is arranged to help the user select cabling based on the, application, the environmental conditions and mechanical requirements. It is true that any Category 5 or higher cable will support 10/100BaseT traffic. It is not true that a Category 5 cabling will provide the level of performance needed to survive long term in a harsh high noise industrial environment. One of the most important factors in selecting the correct cable is having a thorough understanding the environment where the cables will installed. The planner should already understand the application needs (ie 10Mb/s, 100Mb/s&) and will need to focus on environmental and mechanical aspects of the cabling.
