any cat cable (anything more than cat3) should do you fine for the amount of data you are running

Stereo & DVD & Projector are all together and use good HDMI cables (fyi, projector is a short throw type and sits under the screen - 3 ft from surround receiver).
The Cat5 cabling is only for internet for smart tv functions on projector and DVD. Stereo receiver uses internet for Spotify, etc.. as well as just being connected to the router so that other devices can connect wirelessly (i.e., Yamaha Musicast). Lastly, my security cameras use an HDMI to deliver video to the projector. Total run length from router to devices is 37 feet (up over and down). I've got it all wired now except for the HDMI for cameras - forgot to order that so one more trip crawling in the attic. Fortunately, I ran a string thru the wall which helps for pulling wires.
