Yeah, it is replacing a drop from a handhole to a house. Using the old drop to pull in a fiber and something copper to keep the POTS line going until we can cut in the fiber. Jumper wire would probably work. No shield.

You can also get Cat5 like this: https://www.siemon.com/e-catalog/ECAT_GI_page.aspx?GI_ID=mpc_category-5e-cross-connect-wire When I used to do a lot of work in MTUs, I never had to buy crossconnect wire, the AT&T techs would leave spools behind in the phone closets and they would sometimes mysteriously disappear.

If you need physically small cable there are several folks who make very small patch cables up to 70 some feet. Even flat cable.

Need a physically smaller cable and only 100 Mbps max. Anyone ever heard of such a thing?
