Ethernet Cables


Recommended cables?

If the builder wired your house or office with standard ethernet cable in the wall, will using Supra CAT 8 or ViaBlue 7 from the modem or router to your system make any difference?

Just asking...
OK, let's think this through...  What kind of ethernet cable is carrying the signal to the router and possibly to the internal switch in the house?  It's generally marginal semi-junk that is just sufficient to carry the signal.  Cheap copper.  

So what's the point in purchasing $500 ethernet cable?  Just use off-the-shelf cable that is rated above the speed of the connection.
