Audio Grade Ethernet Cable

I've been thinking about getting a DH Labs ethernet cable. My thought is to get my crappy router as close to my Bryston BDP 3 as possible, so that the cable is only 0.5 meters. I do have a TeraDak LPS connected to the router. Is this a waste of time and money? I know the cable is just a couple hundred dollars but I don't want to spend that much just to realize again that my local files will always be preferable.

To the original question… Audio Grade Ethernet Cable

In my opinion there is no such thing. Yes Cat6a is the better choice. However all the cable is doing is acting as a transmission line for electronic data. 
Look for audio grade RAM because that is to where the data is being buffered prior to streaming.

Good luck.
