Category 6 Cable

Bulk Cat 6 Cable, is the standard for today's high speed gigabit Ethernet networks and is expected to support 10 gigabit ethernet networks in the future while remaining completely backwards compatible with previous network standards. Primarily available in three different types, each Cat 6 cable type having specific pros and cons suited to specific applications. Solid cat6 ethernet network cable, the most commonly used, is comprised of a PVC, Riser, or Plenum jacket and solid core conductors. Solid core conductors allow Cat6 cable to be run long distances while maintaining performance, but reduces flex durability. This makes solid Cat 6 cable perfect for permanent installations. Stranded Cat 6 cable is comprised of a PVC jacket and stranded core conductors making it very flexible. This flexibility allows it to be flexed many times with little or no negative effects on performance, making it perfect for building patch cables. Riser cable is used when running vertically such as between floors of a building. The riser ratings fire retardancy helps prevent fires from spreading by way of the cable. Plenum cable is built with a low smoke, fire retardant jacket that makes it safe for use in plenum air spaces (check your local building codes for plenum requirements).

HDMI 1.4 brings internet sharing.


Okay, so there's good news and bad news. Given that we just love to tease, we'll start you off with the positives. HDMI 1.4 was just revealed, bringing with it an HDMI Ethernet Channel (HEC) that enables data transfers of up to 100 Mbps between supported connected devices. Put simply, this could allow a "broadband-connected television using its HEC-enabled HDMI port to provide internet connection sharing with another HEC-enabled device such as a game console or DVR." Furthermore, the spec's Audio Return Channel (ARC) enables broadcast audio to be easily streamed back to an external amplifier, and the Automatic Content Enhancement (ACE) provides support for "future 3D video standards, increased resolution support (up to 4,096 x 2,160 pixels at up to 30Hz), and content recognition that promises to automatically optimize the TV's picture settings based on content type..
