The difference in price and quality between 28 AWG and 23 AWG wire is notable. For a 500-foot length, you're looking at significant variations in cost and performance. Higher gauge wire like 23 AWG is thicker, offering better conductivity and durability, but it's generally more expensive. On platforms like PrimeCable or Amazon, you'll find these options with different price points, so comparing both can help you choose based on your needs.

I would choose 23 awg as it matches the official TIA/EIA requirement for Cat6 cables. Make sure the item clearly states it’s pure copper, not aluminum with a copper layer.

I’ve ordered a TP-Link 8-port switch and plan to use this one for the wiring. The keystone jack from Amazon will be included. Will adding a double keystone wall plate with a single gang low box complete the setup?
