Cable category

Cat5e — up to 1 Gbps. Enough for home internet and a typical router.
Cat6 — 1 Gbps over longer runs and up to 10 Gbps over short ones. A good default.
Cat8 — up to 40 Gbps over short runs, shielded (S/FTP). For NAS and fast local networks.

UTP or S/FTP

UTP is unshielded, thin and flexible — plenty for home use. S/FTP is shielded and protects against interference when the cable runs next to power lines.

FAQ

Is a cable faster than Wi-Fi? Usually yes: a cable is more stable and has lower latency, which matters for gaming and video calls.
