Wondering the same thing myself, although I have noticed that some manufacturers tend to color code within their own brands. I bought a Belkin cross-over (before I learned how to make my own), and it appeared that they were all colored orange. At Home Depot, it seems that Blue Cat5 is plenum-rated. Problem is that I don't think their competitors are jumping on the bandwagon.
