I use the same CAT 5 cable for both phone and data in my house. Data
only uses two pairs, phone gets a pair I used to run a fax machine on
it too. Never had a problem.

"Data only uses two pairs" I believe that is only true for 10BaseT
and 100BaseT - if you are using gigabit ethernet - and I would assume
that the OP is, or is planning on it sometime in the future, otherwise
he wouldn't be spending the extra $$ for Cat6 - that will use all four
pairs.
