The self install kit that came with the "superhub", came with a nice long ethernet cable.

What kind of cable is it? cat5, cat5e, or cat6? I cannot find anywhere where it says this, not even printed on the cable itself.

The reason I ask, I realised last night that my desktop is connected via an old cat5, that is pulled through under the floorboards. If the cable is cat5e or cat6, it will probably be worth me ripping that one out, and pulling the new one that was supplied through.
