The Cat 7 standard provides performance of up to 600 MHz (1000 MHz for the Cat-7a, or Augmented Category 7 standard) and can be used up to a maximum length of 100 meters. | + | **Category 7 (Cat-7)** [[ddsf:public:guidebook:06_append:glossary:n:netcabling|network cabling]] is used as a cabling infrastructure for 1000BASE-T (Gigabit [[ddsf:public:guidebook:06_append:glossary:e:ethernet|Ethernet]], or GbE) and 10GBASE-T (10-Gigabit Ethernet, or 10 GbE) networks.

| Category 7 cable is able to achieve higher performance than preceding Ethernet standards such as Cat 5, Cat 5e and Cat 6 by requiring each of its twisted wire pairs to be fully shielded. This is known as Screen Shielded Twisted Pair (SSTP) or Screened Foiled Twisted Pair (SFTP) wiring, and it almost completely eliminates alien crosstalk while significantly improving noise resistance. | Category 7 cable is able to achieve higher performance than preceding Ethernet standards such as Cat 5, Cat 5e and Cat 6 by requiring each of its twisted wire pairs to be fully shielded.
