as far as I can tell Cat 1 would be straight analog dial tone. The orginal Cat 3 would have been used as the first networking cable for 10 base T and token ring networks. I would never pull quad or JKT cable in a current job even if its a house. The old quad cable is about as useless as it gets. The FCC can mandate what they want but there will still be electricians doing our job and pulling this old and outdated cable because they either have it in there truck or its just cheaper and they can make a better margin on it.
