A standard CAT5 / CAT5e or CAT6 cable is made for computer network signal transmission where each twisted pair could be of different lengths. Using standard twisted pair cable could cause a color shift known as “skew.” We recommend the Altinex No-skew Twisted Pair Cables, CB3150PV or CB5600PL, to minimize color shift (skew) on long cable runs.
