If all goes well, this summer I'll be building a new house. I've owned a few houses before, some of them built in the 1920s and 30s, and full of all the charm and quirks of an old house, and a couple that were pretty new, with the lack of craftsmanship and imagination that's typical in most new construction in the USA today. But this time I'm building a custom home, just to my specifications, so I can have whatever features I want, limited only by my imagination (and budget). I'd like to integrate some home automation features into the house, and include wiring for future expansion.

"Can someone please tell me the difference between cat5 and cat6e."
The higher the cat No. the tighter the twist in the cable allowing higher data rates to be transmitted without interference. This twist must be maintained into the connectors so you need the same cat all the way to maintain the speed. Also higher cat cables are less tolerant to damage, kinking etc.
