Which Cable is the Best Cat5e or Cat6?

[Gazzadp]

OK Guys (and Ladies) this is my very first post in these forums, have lurked and read all the tales of SkyBB doom & gloom, which left me thinking have I done the right thing in migrating from Tiscali to SkyBB (Max) but so far all my fears have been unfounded!

Anyway I am thinking of renewing all the phone cables in our house, which are
wired in from our side of the BT Master Socket, I also intend to purchase
an XTE-2000 Master Faceplate together with a 68mm filtered socket both from
ADSL nation.

Now my question is this which cable would be the best for the job.

Cat5e: Which I would have to buy.

-or-

Cat6: Which I can get for free in any amount.

The Cat6 is high quality *British Made* cable, made by a local firm.

So what would the more experienced amongst the regulars recommend!

Many Thanks in advance & Best Wishes as always,

Gaz

Cat 6 is better, although I wouldn't think it would make any difference for this purpose. But since cat 6 is free for u all I can say is "you lucky $£%!"

As dq1 says cat6 is superior but not strictly necessary, as its free - go for it
