I can install 1Gbps using copper cables + RJ45 and household tools. I can't install 10Gbps using a $10 crimper.
Therefore, I have 1Gbps all through my house and 10Gbps between equipment next to the access point.
- lostlogin 5mo agoYou can’t crimp cat 6?
- randunel 5mo agoCrimping implies RJ45, so 1Gbps. You can't crimp SFP+.
- gh02t 5mo agoEven CAT5e can do 10 Gbps if you do a decent job making the cable, even though it's out of spec. 6A can do it easily, in spec. I used it in my previous home. I much prefer to use fiber, but copper with good old RJ45 works fine for 10 gig.
