What CAT cable is provided in the RBK40 Orbi router box? 5 or 6?

I would like to check if the cable provided in the box is a CAT 5 or a CAT 6 ethernet cable? I only can see that its a flat cable.

    It's probably a Cat5 or Cat5e cable. For short cables, it doesn't really matter. Even Cat5 can handle Gigabit.
