The TECH TALKS Marching On

In April C-Tech broke with tradition and presented three different Tech Talks all on the same topic.  The topic was category 6 cable; our presenter was Brian Ensign of Leviton Voice & Data (www.levitonvoicedata.com).  There was just so much information on this important subject that we just couldn't fit it into one talk.  

The morning session discussed the Performance Evolution that gave rise to Cat 6.  The afternoon session dealt with the LAN Evolution, and the evening session reviewed the Cat 6 standards.  Brian, a member of the Category Six Consortium, was a treasure-trove of knowledge, and the talks were all very informative.
