To achieve data transfer rates of up to 10 Gbps for distances up to 55 meters, the company should choose Category 6a (Cat 6a) cabling. Cat 6a supports frequencies up to 500 MHz and can deliver 10 Gbps Ethernet (10GBASE-T) over longer distances, up to 100 meters, which more than covers the company's requirement of 55 meters. Cat 5e is limited to 1 Gbps, and while Cat 7 also supports higher data transfer rates, it is not commonly used due to its cost and lack of significant benefit over Cat 6a for the specified distance. Coaxial cables are not typically used for 10 Gbps Ethernet.
