100 Mbps
1 Gbps, 2.5 Gbps, or 5 Gbps
10 Gbps
For speeds of 10 Gbps, if the cable length is shorter than 45 meters (148 feet), you can use a Cat 5e
cable. Because you might not experience the speeds listed when using cable runs longer than 100
meters, we recommend using a higher category of Ethernet cable than the category listed for runs
longer than 100 meters.
