Which of the following cable types often includes a solid plastic core that keeps the twisted pairs separated?

Cat 6

You've just signed up for a broadband home internet service that uses coaxial cabling. Which connector type will you MOST LIKELY use?

You're installing network wiring for a new Ethernet network at your company's main office building. The project specifications call for Cat 5e UTP network cabling and RJ45 wall jacks. Near the end of the project, you run out of wire before the last few runs are complete. You have a spool of Cat 3 network cable in storage. Upon closer inspection, it appears very similar to the Cat 5e wiring. To finish the project, should you use the Cat 3 cabling as a substitute for the Cat 5e cabling?

No. Cat 5e cabling has more twists per inch than Cat 3 cabling, reducing crosstalk and supporting higher data rates.

You're adding new wires in your building for some new offices. The building has a false ceiling that holds the lights and provides an air path for heating and air conditioning. You'd like to run your Ethernet cables in this area. Which type of cable must you use?
