There's a chunk of CAT5 dangling outside my window

And it's not mine...

I don't have any upstairs roommates, so it must be hanging off the roof. But I can't come up with any legitimate reason why there's CAT5 on the roof of a house 😕

Update: It's still there. I'm still sitting here.

Plugging a rogue RJ45 into any of my equipment is not high on the to-do list 😛

Maybe I'll go outside and look a little bit later.

While you're up there, could you see how far you can jump off the roof?

I have no means with which to get on the roof. "Go outside" and "Go on the roof" are two seperate and distinct entities.
