As per title I'm putting a new network cable which will terminate in a box. Could you guys answer me a couple of quick questions, please.

I read Cat6 is harder to get right; should I bother with it or just go for Cat5e
What cable type FTP or UTP? (Is this a fancy way of saying patch or crossover?)
Could I just get a long patch cable and lop the ends off an wire into a box?

Cheers.
