Thanks for the closeup of the cable printing. I can see that it is CMR 24 AWG stranded. I suspect this is category 5a because it is using 24 AWG wire not the thicker 23 AWG wire required for Cat 6x.
It says "Gigaflex" but I believe 5a is rated for gigabit ethernet. So far so good.

I can't see the colors in the plugs. Can you turn the plugs over and take a picture from the side without the tabs? From what I can see, it looks like white-orange orange white-blue blue white-green green white-brown brown. That would make it category "amateur".

By the way the wire is marked Belden, but that does not mean Belden made the whole cable including the terminations. This might be a homemade cable.
