New Standard
On June 20, 2002, the Category 6 (or Cat 6) addition
to the TIA-568 standard was published.
This new standard specifies the original set of
performance parameters that need to be tested for
Ethernet cabling as well as the passing scores for
each of these tests.
A quality cable tester is the Fluke
DSP-LIA013 Channel/Traffic Adapter
for Cat5e.
