Upgrading a switch onto old cabling delivers old speeds, because the category rating of the run sets the ceiling. Copper ethernet also has a maximum length past which the link becomes unreliable, which is what causes intermittent faults in long building runs rather than faulty hardware. Patch leads flex; solid core is for permanent runs. See network cables, Cat6 cables and network switches.
