Hi, I thought Cat5/6 are only for network cables? Didn't know you can get that for phones?
I used Cat5 for my network cable as Cat6 was a lot more expensive and Cat5 is sufficient for the ADSL2+ I am using or something like that, can't remember now :-)
We have our own cabling guy who laid Cat5 cables to all rooms (I don't trust the slow, insecure wireless ones), installed back-to-base security systems (which automatically ring my mobile if anything triggered the alarm) with quite a few sensors around the house, laid lots of speaker/projector cables in my "future" home theatre, and installed a filter at the place where the phone line entered the house.
Hope this answered your question!
