I'm looking into buying a large volume of ethernet cables, but it's not for traditional use- I'm going to be stripping it and using the inner pairs.

I've noticed that the inner pairs come in different colours and sometimes different tones- some seem to be paler than others. Is there a reason for this? A coating or something? I'd like to know so that I can buy all of the paler tone...

Let me know if you have any insight to this strange question!
