Ethernet wire is a type of cable used to connect computers and other network devices together. It is made up of four twisted pairs of copper wire, and is usually either a Cat5 or Cat6 cable. The twisted pairs are used to reduce crosstalk and interference from other nearby cables, and the Category 5 and 6 cables have better insulation and have higher transfer speeds. Ethernet wire can be used for both wired and wireless networks.
