	Yes, cable properties change over time, over months or years, sure. As for
current flowing causing "energy build up", any magnetic field that's going
to build around an Ethernet cable due to current flowing through it has
affected the cable's characteristics as much as it is going to in a tiny
fraction of a second.

	An Ethernet cable does not need to 'warm up'.
