[asterisk-users] Y-cords - What are they ?

[Zeeshan Zakaria]

That's why I specifically mentioned Cat5 networks, because giga bit networks
which use four pairs are called Cat6 networks.

This is true that Cat5 networks are also used with gigabit hardware, but
technically it is wrong. Cat6 hardware uses different frequencies over
copper than Cat5, and mixing and matching Cat5 and Cat6 results in not a
true gigabit performance. And certainly there are no Y-cables in Cat6
networks.

For Ethernet, this is only true for 10Mbps and 100Mbps. Gigabit and up
uses all four pairs.
