Cabling should be considered a basic building ingredient to be included or upgraded in all new and remodeled state buildings and leased facilities.
Category 6 cable should be considered where long building occupancy is expected (beyond December 31, 2007) and the total cost of installing Category 6 cable (materials and labor) is less than 15% more than the cost of installing Category 5e cable.
Category 5e UTP cable is also recommended for voice in wiring projects with an expected lifetime past December 31, 2006 even though there is an incremental cost increase over Category 3 cable.

Sometimes we recommend faster cable, depending on the demands of the company for which we are cabling and what they will ask of their network.
Since Cat 3 has a maximum distance of 328’, it is often connected to backbone cabling so that complete areas of buildings such as warehouses and factory floors, can all be reached with the best level of service.
Cat 3 is also sometimes referred to by the number of “pairs” of wires inside of a given cable.

 Category 3 cable
Category 3 cable, commonly known as Cat-3, is an unshielded twisted pair cable designed to reliably carry data up to 10Mbps.
It was a popular cabling format in the early 1990s, but has since been almost entirely replaced by the very similar Cat-5, which offers higher top speeds.

The electricity-handling properties of cables determine their function: (1), data and/or voice impedance; (2), attenuation, and grounding capacitance; (3), stranded or solid wire; (4), shielding materials may be either foil tape or braided; (5), shielding of individual wires, pairs of wires, groups of wires, overall, and not at all.
When ordering cable, determine your maximum requirements for the cable&emdash;how much power it may carry, the length of the longest cable, how much shielding it may need, the physical environment where it will be laid, and cable function.
Category 5 cable is the recommended choice for most installation because it offers the most resistance to the four CAIN raisers that afflict networks.

Although most of the physical layer specifications for Gigabit Ethernet call for fiber optic cable, there is one standard, IEEE 802.3ab, that calls for Category 5 UTP cable installed in a star topology with a maximum segment length of 100 meters.
What makes it possible for a Category 3 UTP network to run at 100 Mbps is that 100Base-T4 uses all four pairs of wires in the cable.
Category 5 is the minimum for a 1000Base-T network; Category 3 will not function properly with this protocol.

Category 3 cable is generally regarded as suitable only for networks operating up to10 Mbps, but can support networks at 16 Mbps.
Category 5 cabling is preferred for most modern networks since it has the potential to carry data at 155 Mbps and more.
And because enhanced Category 5 cabling is unshielded, it remains vulnerable to crosstalk due to the higher frequencies at which it operates.

Category 3 cable meets the requirements for new installation of telephone and ISDN services.
The standard recommends matching the cable and jack categories, however a Category 3 jack used with a higher Category cable provides improved performance for ISDN over a Category 3 cable and allows for easier system upgrade.
The Category 3 connecting cords used are also different than ordinary phone cords (Refer to section 1.A.2.5).

Use a straight cable with one switch port set to MDI and the other set to MDI-X. Use a crossover cable with both switch ports set to MDI or both ports set to MDI-X. Figure A-2 shows the wiring diagram for a crossover cable.
Crossover cable: If the module is cabled to a unit that is also MDI-X, such as another Catalyst 3000, use a crossover connecting cable.
For a terminal connection, you use a null-modem cable or a straight cable with a null modem adapter attached.
