10 gigabit ethernet 10ge 10gbe or 10 gige is a group of computer networking technologies for transmitting ethernet frames at a rate of 10 gigabits per second it was first defined by the ieee 802 3ae 2002 standard.
10 gigabit ethernet cable.
In terms of the price for per 100ft 10gbe cat7 ethernet patch cable it is about 10 more than 100ft 10gbe cat6a ethernet patch cable.

And the price for 500ft cat7 bulk cable is about the price for 1000ft cat6a bulk cable which is about 100 more.
Most buildings are cabled with either cat5e or cat6 cable but rarely cat6a which is bad news for those who want to establish a 10 gigabit ethernet network.
And usually we will need more than 2000ft bulk cable for wiring an average house.
Ethernet cables are often stamped with information about the standards they support but they do not indicate whether the network is actually configured to run at that rate.

Unlike previous ethernet standards 10 gigabit ethernet defines only full duplex point to point links which are generally connected by network switches.
Cat6 can technically support 10gbe but only up to 55 meters in ideal conditions.
If you have gigabit internet 1gbps an old ethernet cable will hold you back.
Network devices provide the same rj 45 connection type whether their ethernet ports support 10 100 fast or 10 100 1000 gigabit connections.
Even if both.
Faster interfaces do exist.

Gigabit ethernet has a maximum throughput of 1 000 megabits or 1 gigabit per second hence the name.
If you have a slower connection perhaps 10 or 20 megabits per second you re good with anything cat 5 or newer.
A 10 gigabits per second is currently in use but it has yet to reach widespread use in consumer products.
