Default Cat 5 wire for servos theroy

Ok so I thought of something today when wireing a mini z board to my xmod, I had the idea of using cat 5 wire for the servo. I did this because cat 5 wire transports data extremely fast, thus eliminating almost all servo lag, or at least in theory.

I want to know if anyone knows if I am correct and this is a good idea

No. Cat5 wire is constructed of similar copper wire already installed between the servo and the PCB board.

The wire used to manufacture Cat5 wire may made from a better quality copper wire which offers better transference of electricity without loss, but this gain would be so minute that it would not be worth the trouble to switch it all out.
