Thanks for the reply. I was expecting there was no benefit to the upgraded wire for the reasons you state. Was looking for the confirmation. But since the cost for the Cat 6 wire is just a few $ more than 5e, that is what I plan to pull for the dedicated drop to the Roku. Never know what the future may bring.

Nothing wrong with Cat6 for a permanent run, and generally recommended. I was just thinking it was about a short run like wall to device.
Just be a bit careful about going too cheap. The longer the run, the better quality cable you need, not just Cat type.
