Ethernet cat7 for home users?

Question

Cables and wires

I apologize in advance for a possibly trivial question.
I began to slowly think about the fact that 10G ethernet is going to the masses, including home users. Suppose, if repairs are being made, then it makes a lot of sense to lay a category 7 cable in the walls.
I googled, and didn’t understand something - do sockets of the 7th category exist in nature? Something, only gg45 modular connectors come across, but there are no sockets.
Can someone poke into a similar one, if they exist at all? Or is it supposed to use cat6 sockets with cat7 cable?

Answer 1

usually 1G is more than enough. HDD does not keep up with this at all, so it makes no sense to think so much.
Again, 10g network cards are expensive, and there are practically no such integrated cards in ordinary cards.

Answer 2

Well, a friend laid down FTP6 during the repair.
I don’t know the seven, if you have extra money and you can lay down the desire.
Sockets - you can look for frames for the module, or put 6e for now, and when you need to change it.
But in the next, at least 5 years, I don’t see any sense in home 10G at all, well, if you don’t do some kind of video editing or design and don’t keep a rendering farm on the toilet shelf

Answer 3

Category 5E - 1 Gbps at 100 meters
Category 6 - 10 Gbps at 55 meters
Category 6A - 10 Gbps at 100 meters.
Category 7/7A - mainly used for interblock switching at the core level. At the access level, it is practically not used; this explains the lack of outlets.
Since category 7/7A is mainly used for interunit switching in server rooms, such a cable has an important limitation - the cross section of the conductor. If categories 5e ... 6A have a cross section of 23-24 AWG, then category 7 may well have 27-28AWG, which makes it unsuitable for long distances.
ps There is also 5e with a section of 26AWG, but it is better not to use this one. For 5E, the correct section is 24AWG, and for 6/6A, 23AWG.
