Fair enough, if it is that little difference in price then I'd agree=20
you might as well go for the LSOH. However, looking at netshooper for=20
example the prices are as follows:

Cat5e UTP 305m - =A334.95
Cat5e LSOH UTP 305m - =A355.50
Cat6 UTP 305m - =A358.95

The LSOH does come in a pretty violet colour which no doubt adds to=20
the price, but that is still a hefty difference over bog standard=20
grey.
