Currently, category 5e seems to offer the most bandwidth as far as copper cabling is concerned. However, standards are also being worked on for categories 6 and 7. Category 5 transmission performance is rated at 100Mhz. Category 6 cabling will extend transmission performance to 200 MHz, while Category 7 cabling is targeting 600 MHz.
