I want to buy a Telephone line/wire cable of copper,about 100ft.

The wire should be a single or one pair wire.

But I am confused about its other parameter of width(diameter)!!!
Shall I buy the 0.4mm or the 0.5mm specs?

higher the thickness the better. but it wont matter if line has strong signal.

Ultimately that length of wire(paired + non-moving ) was installed by BSNL(albeit, the line man),and now I am enjoying very good speeds.
My Plan is BSNL BBG Home 1495ULD.

As per Plan ULD1495,this is what BSNL is providing,though with high ping:--->
