Use RJ-45 cables to set up office network. There are 3 main types of RJ-45 cables that you will run across in networking, both LAN and WAN. To identify the RJ-45 cable type, hold the two ends of the cable next to each other so you can see the colored wires inside the ends.

Use Cat 5 cable is a twisted pair high signal integrity cable. Many such cables are unshielded but some are shielded. Cat 5 has been superseded by the Category 5e specification structured cabling for computer networks such as Ethernet, and is also used to carry many other signals such as basic voice services, token ring, and ATM

Cat-6 is a cable standard for Gigabit Ethernet and other network protocols that is backward compatible with the Category 5/5e and Category 3 cable standards. Cat-6 features more stringent specifications for crosstalk and system noise. The cable standard provides performance of up to 250 MHz and is suitable for 10BASE-T / 100BASE-TX and 1000BASE-T / 1000BASE-TX (Gigabit Ethernet). Check this thread : CAT5 vs. CAT5e
