Check if these routers are compatible with CAT7 cables. For the TP-Link TL-WR840N, refer to its official specs. The Asus RT-N12+ listing doesn't specify cable types, so verify directly. Always confirm manufacturer recommendations for optimal performance.

Initially Cat7 isn't a recognized standard. Also, any Ethernet cable should function with any of those routers.

They only provide 10 out of 100 Ethernet ports, let alone gigabit speeds—this means you're essentially losing value by choosing the CAT7 model.

You don't require high-quality cable for those sections anyway—it's just a 100-meter run. Go with Cat 5e or 6 for this. Cat 6a or 7 is sufficient for 10G base for extended distances.

Avoid using Cat7 since it doesn’t exist. A mediocre Cat5e connection can handle up to 1 gigabit per second. It’s unlikely you’ll encounter patch cables below Cat6a, which supports 10 gigabits per second.
