Calculadora de Cable Ethernet
Verifica la longitud máxima y la atenuación de cable Ethernet Cat5e/6/6a/Cat8 para diferentes velocidades.
Fórmula
Att = \frac{L}{100} \times Att_{100m}
Referencia: IEEE 802.3 / TIA-568 cabling standards
Cómo Funciona
Ethernet cable performance is critical for network infrastructure, determining transmission speed and signal quality. Cable length and category directly impact network performance, with specific limitations based on cable type and intended network standard. Signal integrity depends on factors like attenuation, crosstalk, and electromagnetic interference.
Ejemplo Resuelto
Problem: Design a network segment using Cat6A cabling for a 10GBASE-T network with a required connection length Solution: 1. Verify cable category: Cat6A supports 10GBASE-T up to 100m 2. Measure cable run: Ensure total length does not exceed 100m 3. Check insertion loss: Must remain below 11.5dB at Nyquist frequency 4. Validate NEXT (Near-End Crosstalk): Ensure >20dB signal-to-noise ratio
