CAT5 etc networking cables are twisted proportionally and apparently the twist(s) are important to the correct functioning of the cabling. I've queried this with a number of 'experts', and while they all agree that this is necessary, no-one seemed to know exactly why. I suppose I could google it but can't really be ar**d. If I never have to terminate or make another patch cable, it'll suit me fine.
