Detailed explanation-1: -For 10GBASE-T, an unshielded Cat 6 cable should not exceed 55 meters and a Cat 6A cable should not exceed 100 meters.
Detailed explanation-2: -For Ethernet copper cabling when used for 10/100/1000BASE-T, the maximum allowed length of a Cat 5e / Cat 6 cable is 100 meters (328 ft).
Detailed explanation-3: -Standards for cable distance recommend that Cat5, Cat5e, Cat6 and Cat6a cables have a maximum cable segment run length of 100 meters or 328 feet. The cable distance specifications are part of the Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) and Electronic Industries Alliance (EIA) standards.
Detailed explanation-4: -Maximum Distance for Ethernet Cable As the above form shows, for 10/100/1000 Mbps links, 100 meters (approx. 300 ft.) is the maximum length for cables with Cat5e or Cat6. For a Cat6 cabling to achieve a transmission speed of 10 Gbps, the transmission distance should not exceed 55 meters.
Detailed explanation-5: -TSB-155-A states that “10GBASE-T should operate over channel lengths of up to 37 meters of Category 6 cabling, and should operate over channel lengths between 37 and 55 meters of Category 6 cabling depending on the alien crosstalk environment.
