The network cable that comes from the modem, in this case cat5, must connect the DVR, a TV and in the future a box for streaming football matches and films via a switch.
Is this enough or do I have to replace it with cat6.
Usually, legacy cables (like CAT5E with four pairs) allow even 2.5 GbE and under many conditions also 5 GbE links if not to near to high power installations.
I'm would be more concerned using the right switch supporting IGMP Multicast than on that single Ethernet link.
