For my setup, I’ve gone with Cat-6A cabling. It’s backwards compatible to all my devices (RBP, Printer, TV, any consoles I’d get, PVRs, etc…) and right now all I have is 1 Gig networking hardware to work with it.
I also know copper way better than fibre (terminating fibre is a non-starter for me, but that’s just my ignorance talking).
So for me I’m future proofing to 10Gbps, but I don’t even know how many years it’ll be before I feel the need.
