Cat5 cable is the standard cable for computer networking.

The "RJ" in RJ15 stands for registered jack. This is the part at the end of a cable that can be used to connect them to computers, phones, etc.

Both RJ11 and RJ45 are registered jacks. However, there are only four wires inside of an RJ11 and eight inside of an RJ45. Fundamentally, they can be universally exchanged, however.
