Detailed explanation-1: -They are collectively known as Ethernet or network communication cables and are used to achieve high-speed data transfer connections. Ethernet cable is constructed using a set of four twisted pair wires (eight wires in total). Some are shielded, but many Cat5 and Cat6 cables are unshielded.
Detailed explanation-2: -Since each connector has eight pins, an RJ45 Ethernet cable will have eight wires of varying colours. RJ45 cables can be wired according to two different schemes, T-568 A or B, depending upon the devices to be connected within the network.
Detailed explanation-3: -An 8-pin/8-position plug or jack is commonly used to connect computers onto Ethernet-based local area networks (LAN). Two wiring schemes–T568A and T568B–are used to terminate the twisted-pair cable onto the connector interface.
Detailed explanation-4: -RJ48. RJ48 is a registered jack. It is used for T1 and ISDN termination and local area data channels or subrate digital services. It uses the eight-position modular connector (8P8C).
