The conductor size of electrical wires is expressed using standards and units. The expression varies by region and standard, so caution is needed when selecting cables and wires. At LAPP, we explain various units, including AWG and mm², and provide quick reference tables on our website. Please feel free to use them.

In today's industrial machinery, Cat.5e (100Mbit/s) is recommended, but recently, high-speed large-capacity data communication (10Gbit/s) with Cat.6 is gradually becoming more common. In this column, LAPP's technical experts will clearly explain the differences between Cat.5e and Cat.6, as well as provide an easy-to-understand overview of industrial Ethernet!
