For one thing, shielded Cat-5 cable is rare.
In fact, I have never seen such a beast myself Jon.
I used them in my last machine - shielded multistrand CAT5 cable. The
price was much higher

There is solid stranded for fixed installation and stranded for patch cables.

CAT5 patch cables do break down with constant flexing - I've changed
plenty of it :)
Are CAT5 patch cables meant to be CAT5 cable with multi-strand core?

The size of the machine is not the most relevant thing, though a

Note that data cables will need to be screened.
I'm using twisted pair, (OK CAT5, because it was lying around) this is working
for my home switches, but when I joined up the Z Y limit switches (I don't
have enough inputs for one each) I could no longer turn the machine on. HAL

Rafael
The wires you need will depend on what motors you are using, the arrangement of
limit/home switches and if encoders are being used. Once you know these things
you can choose the cable.
For example I have built a machine of similar size to yours. It's driven by
three 3.1Nm steppers
