will this work over cat-6?

It will work over cat-6. The main difference between the two is there is an isolator in cat-6 that reduces crosstalk between the lines, so you get a cleaner signal. I have used my repeater system for years now and it is seamless. Hope this helps!

Yes, I am using it over shielded cat 6. However anything that will work over cat 5 will work over cat 6. the wiring pin out on both is the same. The primary difference between cat 5 and 6 is shielding and other standards to allow longer data line runs.

I do not see any reason you couldn't use it. Cat 6 is just a higher speed cable because it has more twists. Cat 5&6 use the same rj45 connector. They also have the same amount of conductors.

No. If you use the proper RJ-11, (Of the type that blocks the wires at the end.) you should have no problem. Have assembled hundreds of CAT5, CAT6 straight through, and crossovers using this tool. No issues whatsoever

It probably will, but the speeds are really lacking. I have my Wifi on 1st fl, and CCK on ground floor. Based on my experience I would use this as a last resort. Best option (but probably most expensive) run Ethernet jack from ISP to the Genie. Second best, setup a net extender with pretty ballin speed next to the genie. If you live in a rented establishment or lack the technical ability, than CCK does work don't get me wrong. If you have $200-300 dollars that you could throw at the issue, you would give yourself much more ideal option, but it should work at a trickle.

Yes, you can use Cat 5 cable with a Cat 6 connector. The category classification refers to the quality of the cable. The higher the number, the higher the bandwidth the cable is rated at. Cat 5 is for rated for 100 MHz and Cat 6 is rated for 200 MHz. All you're doing is using a higher grade connector with a lower grade cable. The color code and AWG is the same for Cat 5 and Cat 6.

Thats beyond cat5 range as you know. I suggest running a shielded pvc insulated cable for max throughput, and it may still not work.

I used it with Cat6 and it worked great. I believe that all Cat 5-7 use the standard RJ45 connector so to answer your questions these should fit your cable.

not cat6, could not get better than 50Mbps transfer rates, vs 800+Mbps with known cat 5e cable.

There are no provisions for the shield on this patch panel. If using a shielded cat 6 you will have to come up with some sort of termination for the shield wire from the cables to the isolated ground. No big deal, it's just not included on the panel.

no it will not you have to use a toshiba adapter or an ethernet (cat 5) cable.

It would be pretty really tight. i wouldn't reccomend it. You should probably use an hdmi over cat5/6 extender if you wanted to go through conduit.

Not directly. You will need cat 5 baluns on each end for video and a power adapter on each end and it will work.

If you use a Crossover, then you'll need a crossover on the other end as well. it runs over cat6 but is not being transferred as Ethernet. On each end the pin order must match.

from the research that I did, it certainly looks like that. The same tools can be found in a different kit on amazon.com for both Cat5 and Cat6.

Haven't used it yet. Hopefully it does because I bought it for cat6 cables Good luck!

Probably not. This uses passive POE which is basically just routing the power you supply to it through the unused pairs on the Cat-5. Active POE, as from your switch, uses some intelligence to direct a specific voltage down the line. The two aren't compatible. I'm not sure if your switch will have some kind of fallback mode where it'll push voltage down the lines by default but I don't think it would.

CAT 5e will support gigabit speeds but CAT 6 is certainly better. CAT 6 has better shielding and supports higher transmissions speeds especially over longer distances. Check this out. http://www.broadbandutopia.com/caandcaco.html
