For longer runs it can't hurt to have both.

If you are really industious (sp?) you can buy bulk cable from places like home depot and crimp it yourself, although for one run it might not be worth it economically.

Check in the yellow pages for any local computer shops, most of them probably cut CAT5 and crimp it themselves, you can probably get it close to what places charge online, and you are helping a local business, that's what I did.
