Data rate refers to the speed of transmission, meaning the cable supports up to 1Gbps over 100 meters. The Cat5e standard is designed for that performance; however, if your cable quality is low or the connectors are faulty, speed may suffer. Nearby power cables might interfere, but Cat6 handles this better thanks to improved shielding—Cat5e does not. Since your connection speed appears normal, the issue likely lies with quality or external interference.

It sounds like you understand now. The issue is likely related to cable quality rather than the difference between CAT5E and CAT6 speeds. Thanks for clarifying!
