The Cat 5e and Cat 6 ethernet cables are available in 50 foot and longer lengths and have no problem working that distance. For a longer distance I would use the Cat 6 just because it is of higher quality and can use the same ports. I really don't know how far they work only that they will work if you purchase a non custom cable length and have seen a length as long as 250 feet for the CAT 6 cables
