[QUOTE="dtravis7, post: 1097882, member: 8287"] 1000Base-T (Gigabit) should have CAT-5e and not just plain Cat-5. If it's a short run most of the Cat-5 I have here will work, but on a longer run you might just get a 100 connect. Did you build the cable or is it a factory made cable? Edit: opps, just saw the 10' after I saved the message. Reason I asked if was a factory made cable is any fault will keep it from connecting at the Gigabit Speed. I have some poorly made cables 15' or so that refused to allow a Gigabit connect. [/QUOTE]
