Category 6 network cable 24awg and 23awg are not much different

:2025-04-08

  The 24AWG and 23AWG of the six types of network cables have significant differences in several aspects, which have a significant impact on the performance and application scenarios of the network cable. The following is a specific comparison of the two:

  Conductor diameter

  24AWG: The diameter of the wire conductor (usually copper core) is approximately 0.51mm.

  23AWG: The conductor diameter of the network cable is approximately 0.57mm.

  TranSMission capacity

  24AWG: Due to its small conductor diameter, 24AWG network cables may be limited in transmitting high-frequency signals. Its maximum transmission frequency is usually 250MHz, meeting the requirements of standard gigabit network transmission.

  23AWG: Due to the larger conductor diameter, the 23AWG network cable performs better in transmission capacity. Its maximum transmission frequency can reach 300MHz, which is a super-standard gigabit transmission frequency and can support higher bandwidth applications.

  III. Application scenarios

  24AWG: Suitable for general home users and ordinary office users, it is usually used for gigabit network equipment. Its price is relatively affordable and suitable for large-scale procurement and use.

  23AWG: More suitable for occasions that require higher transmission capacity, such as large office areas, data centers, or home users who need to run 10 Gigabit networks. Although the price is slightly higher, it is better for stable transmission and higher bandwidth.

  IV. Physical characteristics and durability

  Conductor material: Both usually use oxygen-free copper or bare copper as a conductor material, which has good electrical conductivity.

  Insulators and sheaths: The choice of insulation and sheath materials also has a significant impact on the durability and performance of the cable. High-quality materials provide better electrical characteristics and physical protection.

  V. Summary

  In summary, 24AWG and 23AWG of the six types of network cables have significant differences in conductor diameter, transmission capacity, application scenarios, and physical characteristics and durability. The choice of which specification of network cable depends on the specific application needs and budget. For general home users and ordinary office users, 24AWG network cable is enough to meet the needs of gigabit network transmission; for application scenarios that require higher transmission capacity and bandwidth, 23AWG network cable is a better choice.
