You can also just use poultry fence staples since this is low-voltage
wiring, and save the cost of a staple gun.

Poultry fence staples? When were they UL approved?


For low voltage wiring, I'm pretty sure they don't have to be.

Article 725 has as much a force of law as article 300. Low voltage is still
regulated by the NEC and if an inspector is questioning your Romex staples he
could screw with you on the CAT5 staples too.

It is becoming a lot more common that low voltage installers need to be
licensed and pull permits. That has been true in Florida for almost a decade.
