[Q] Will the quality of CAT 5 Cable effect the performance
of Voice-Over-IP applications?
[A] Any time you are considering an application for CAT 5 Cable, performance must always come first. Many applications
demand a large amount of bandwidth to run smoothly.
Some
of the more popular high-bandwidth applications are internet
gaming, file sharing services, VPN network support, and of course,
Voice-Over-IP.
The
only major complaint most VOIP users wage is that during times
of high bandwidth demand from other applications, the quality
of the voice communications begins to deteriorate.
Many
people have found that using the highest quality hardware and
cabling will prevent signal loss, and make it less likely that
problems will be experienced due to a great demand being placed
on their broadband internet.
While
there is no way to prevent signal loss when sharing a single
broadband connection with multiple computers and applications,
you can maximize the signal strength and lessen these effects
by using high quality patch cables in your network. Many people
fail to realize that every time you create a connection on your
network, you create an opportunity to slow it down. Remember,
your network will always operate at the speed of the slowest
device.
