Patch Cable

Hi all, just had Fibre to the door fitted this week with one of these as my access point by the front door.

Have to be honest and say it really isn't the best area for the Smart 2 to sit, so was going to reposition it where the wifi will perform better. Was going to use a longer eth cable but no spec printed on the supplied cable (no surprise there). Had a search on forum to see what spec the supplied patch cable is but no one seems sure. Should I go gigabit standard (cat 6) cable as speed is supposedly 470mb?

Re: Patch Cable

Cat 5e is good for 1Gb but no harm going for Cat 6 if there's little price difference.
