10GBASE-T is a standard proposed by the IEEE 802 committee to provide 10 Gigabit/second connections over conventional unshielded twisted pair cables. The committee currently working on the standard is IEEE 802.3an, a subgroup of IEEE 802.3. The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers or IEEE (pronounced as eye-triple-ee) is an international non-profit, professional organization incorporated in the State of New York, United States. ... Jump to: navigation, search Unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cabling is the most common cable used in computer networking. ... // Versions of Ethernet The original Ethernet is called Experimental Ethernet today. ...
Connectors
The proposal for 10GBASE-T calls will use the conventional RJ-45 used for ethernet LANs. This is seen as a major advantage towards acceptance of this standard. (IEEE 802.3an in conjunction with ISO/IEC 11801-2002) Jump to: navigation, search Cat5 cables with RJ45 An RJ-45 connector that has yet to be crimped onto a cable RJ-45 (Registered Jack 45) is a physical interface often used for terminating twisted pair type cables. ...
Cables
The 10GBASE-T standard will use of Category 5e or Category 6 or Category 7 cables. Augmented Category 6 cable is being developed which will to reduce crosstalk between the cables, allowing 10GBASE-T deployment at the full 100m distance specified for LAN wiring. (Source: IEEE 802.3an Objectives)
It is likely that the yet to be finalized 10GBaseT (10 Gigabit Ethernet) will be able to run over Cat 5e/Cat 6, albeit with limited range.
It is designed for transmission frequencies up to 600 MHz, which should enable it to carry 10-Gigabit Ethernet (10GBaseT), but may require a redesigned (but backward compatible) RJ-45 connector called a GG45 to achieve this speed.
Current proposals for 10GBaseT seek to allow it to run full speed, but shorter distances over Cat 5e or Cat 6 cable.
It is designed for transmission frequencies up to 600MHz, which should enable it to carry 10-Gigabit Ethernet (10GBaseT), but requires a redesigned RJ-45 connector (called a GG45) to achieve this speed.
Also in development are non RJ-45 backward compatible standards such as (Tera) from siemons, Tera promises transmission frequencies of up to 1200Mhz.
10GBaseT networks are not yet widely available, and may not be able to compete with fibre optic networks.
