-  - Cable / speed recommendations do not mean that higher than specified speeds are not achievable, but rather such speed are not recommended and may not be reliably achieved.+  - Cable / data speed recommendations do not mean that higher than specified data speeds are not achievable, but rather such speed are not recommended and probably not be reliably achieved.
   - Clearly higher specified cable / speeds can provide performance at lower speeds that may not otherwise be indicated. For example, 10Mbps and 100Mbps can be achieve on CAT5E and up.   - Clearly higher specified cable / speeds can provide performance at lower speeds that may not otherwise be indicated.
