Cat 5 cable in basement
I have a 2016 Reflection 303RLS. I recently removed the wall in the basement so I could have a look at the wiring and to see if I could get to the black and gray water tank valves. As soon as I moved the wall away, a six foot length of yellow cat 5 network cable greeted me and it has an RJ-45 connector on it. I could only see it go back toward the living room/kitchen area but haven't a clue where it terminates or what it's for. Anyone else know about or have seen this in their basement?
Thanks.
Eric

EricKog - I have spoken to one of the Regional Service Managers and based on the description of the cable, this may have been added by the previous owner.

If the previous owner had an inverter with a remote on off digital switch then Cat 5 is needed for the power to the switch. At least on mine it is.

Thanks Tara and goducks14. I'm checking with the previous owner to see if he ran it for some purpose. I'd like to know where it terminates and to see if I can use is for something.
