VARILIGHT sockets have an industry-wide reputation for exceptional performance, long life and innovation at attractive prices. …………………………………………..

It is important to select the correct socket for your application, so please read the following information carefully, if need be look at PDF manuals, and if you are still unsure, then contact us. ………………………………………….. Appearance, Function and Applications The Data Grid Range enables you to choose data modules to fit onto these special single and double face plates.

The Data Grid system is very simple to assemble, the modules just clip into the Data Grid Faceplates.

Cat5 Vs Cat6 Cat5 & Cat6 sockets and cables are used for a variety of applications, it is most often used for ethernet networking, eg. connecting computers, laptops, TVs, TV channel boxes and servers, etc, to modems and wifi boxes/wireless routers. There are many reasons for network cables and sockets to be installed in houses and offices over enhanced wifi signals: it gives more capability in every room/office space to get instant access to the internet without boosting a wifi signal. The other main reason is wifi signal isn’t the healthiest way of being on the internet, wifi signal is a form of EMF radiation, by cutting out the wifi signal and connecting directly to a router will reduce headaches, brain fog and other problems (especially if your wifi is on 24/7!) So what is the difference between Cat5, Cat5e & Cat6? Mainly Crosstalk and high speeds. In a nutshell, Cat5 was the most commonly used networking ethernet cable in the home, but when there is a mass of cables (from electronic equipment, etc) that are close to each other, it can cause interference, also known as Crosstalk. Cat5e (Enhanced) is far better nowadays than the older Cat5. Cat5e has significantly improved performances including 10x faster speeds and reduced Crosstalk. Although, in these conditions, i.e. grouping of cables, or for best performance it’s wise to opt for Cat6, as it reduces errors and lost packets. Therefore, if you are considering creating a new wired network in the home, Cat6 would be the best route foward. Please note that both Cat5e and Cat6 cable end plugs fit both networking sockets, meaning if Cat6 is installed in your house, you can still run a Cat5e cable from your laptop and it will still work. If you do require to future-proof your home then opt for Cat6A ethernet cables to create networks, as there is no loss of data on long runs of cables. On the horizon is Cat8, this product will be able to support greater bandwidth and much larger data speeds, although Cat8 would be used mainly in the business sector e.g. data centres and server rooms, and not so common in the home. …………………………………………..
