I like Ubiquiti Toughcable but it aint cheap.
Most of the mainstream stores sell decent quality stuff, also most of the mainstream stores don't make up fake categories to make their cable sound better... Craplin does 305m of real Cat 5e or 6 for £80 or per metre at ridiculously overpriced rates. Or 20m for £9
Ebuyer does a 100m roll for £47

A 300m reel of real Cat6a costs £300 by the way, so you can tell anyone selling "6e" for £50 is telling porkies.
I've said many times before though, there is no point to getting Cat 6 cabling (except in this case, it's cheaper). Cat 5, 5e, and 6 all do exactly the same speed so unless you are using broken/faulty/bad quality cable it will not be any faster. Cat6a will go to 10Gbps but since those cost £400+ per link I doubt many people who don't already know what they're doing will be trying to use it in their homes.
