CAT5: When more isn’t always better.

In data communications applications, using products

that exceed required capacities is usually not a problem.
For example, if a 28.8-kbps modem is required, a 33.6-kbps
or 56-kbps modem will work just fine.

But sometimes more isn’t better. For instance, KVM 

switches are designed to expect CAT5 and only CAT5 cable.
You’d probably guess that CAT3 cable wouldn’t be effective
with these products, and you’d be right. But you may also
assume that if CAT5 cable works just fine, CAT5e, CAT6,
and other higher-capacity cables would work even better.
This isn’t the case.

KVM switches from many manufacturers, including our

ServSelect III, are designed specifically for the CAT5 specs
defined by the TIA/EIA standard. Higher-level cables, such
as CAT5e, have different characteristics and specs. Although
differences like twist ratios might seem small, they can have
a negative impact on these extenders, which are expecting
a true CAT5 transmission.

So with our ServSelect III, you can think big with

CAT5 —just don’t think bigger.
