So I self host some stuff like jellyfin, ssh server for borg backup etc. over lan(Asus RT-AX53U router).

And just noticed that i still use cat5 and cat5e cables.

Does it make sense to upgrade to newer cat8 cables?

    Cat 5e supports 5 and 10GbE at least for 10 meters. I wouldn’t bet on it considering the price of Cat 6a but 2 meters is really short.
