I am in the market for a 100 foot long ethernet cable.  Can anybody educate me 
as to what the difference is between this:
($89 at Staples) 
http://www.staples.com/Staples-100-CAT5e-Plus-Snagless-Patch-Cable-Blue/product_631053?cmArea=SEARCH


and this:
($6 on 
Amazon) http://www.amazon.com/RiteAV-Network-Ethernet-Office-Product/dp/B000V0IE6G


And assuming there is a major difference, could anyone advise me as to whether 
the cheaper option will suffice for about 10Mbs (Comcast connection) going to a 
wireless router that will host a couple devices (i.e. NOT a large network with 
need for high bandwidth)?

If it will not suffice is there something more midrange in cost and what to look 
for?

Thank you,
Jeff
