Standard Cable Type Maximum Speed Explanation
Distance
10Base-T Cat3 100 meters 10 Mbps It was the first version of Ethernet to use
a star architecture and was widely used
in the 1980s and 1990s.
100Base-TX Cat5 100 meters 100 Mbps It is a widely used standard for local area
networks (LANs) and is commonly used
in Ethernet networks.
1000Base-T Cat5e 100 meters 1 Gbps It is a widely used technology for wired
local area networks (LANs) and is
supported by most modern network
equipment.
10GBASE-T Cat6A 100 meters 10 Gbps Using unshielded twisted pair (UTP)
copper cable as transmission medium,
10GBASE-T SFP+ transceiver supports
a data rate of 10Gbps/s at a link distance
up to 100 meters over Cat6A twisted
copper cable.
100Base-FX Multimode 2 kilometers 100 Mbps It is a version of Fast Ethernet carrying
Fiber data traffic at 100 Mbps (Mega bits per
second) in local area networks (LAN). It
was launched as the IEEE 802.3u
standard in 1995. Here, 100 is the
maximum throughput, i.e. 100 Mbps,
BASE denoted use of baseband
transmission, and FX denotes use of
optical fibers in Fast Ethernet.
1000Base- Multimode 500 meters 1 Gbps It is use in cisco industry-standard SFP is
SX Fiber a hot-swappable input/output device that
plugs into a Gigabit Ethernet port/slot,
linking the port with the fiber-optic
network. SFPs can be used and
interchanged on a wide variety of Cisco
products and can be intermixed in
combinations of IEEE 802.3z- compliant
1000BaseSX, 1000BaseLX/LH, or
1000BaseZX interfaces on a port-by-port
basis.
1000Base- Single- 10 kilometers 1 Gbps is a type of Gigabit Ethernet technology
LX mode Fiber that operates over long distances using
long-wavelength transmissions (1270-
1355 nm) over single mode fiber (SMF)
or multimode fiber (MMF)
10 Gigabit Single- 40 kilometers 10 Gbps a high-speed data transmission
Fiber mode Fiber technology that uses fiber optic cables to
transfer data at a rate of 10 gigabits per
second (Gbps). This technology is used
in various applications, including
telecommunications, data centers, and
enterprise networks.
ISP/WAN Single- Single-mode Varies Fiber optic connections provided by
Fiber mode Fiber Fiber depending internet service providers (ISPs) and
on Wide Area Networks (WANs) can cover
provider much greater distances and give even
higher speeds depending on the
technology employed. To ensure optimal
performance, these connections use
single-mode fiber.
