Does CAT6/6A Provide Better Video Quality Than CAT5E?

In another group, a poster stated that Cat6 provides better video quality than Cat5.

The argument was that Cat6/A has a higher bandwidth. If a camera starts to see that it is dropping/losing packets to the VMS, it will start to lower the bit rate.
