On the Reolinkcam subreddit they are big on if you are wiring your house internally with ethernet cable do not use Copper Clad Aluminum cable only full copper cabling?

Why is this?

Does it make that much of a difference?

Genuinely curious to know as locally for me the cost is quite high for full copper cabling

    the labor cost if wireing your house is 10x the cost of the cable. Saving 20% in cablecost has a minimal effect on the total cost. CCA is only attrative if you have a fixed price project and have no concern about the drawbacks of CCA.
