You don’t need Cat 6 to connect to the switch. The Nest WiFi (not Pro) only supports Gigabit. Getting a higher spec’d cable for that short of a run is a waste of money.
I’m running cat8 between my modem, router and main switch. The runs to the satellite mesh units are also cat8. I don’t want to ever pull wire to those spots again. I don’t regret it one bit. Everything else is cat6 with a couple 5e runs
