HDMI cable help

Good morning everyone.

I am hoping for a little help regarding HDMI cables. 

I have Googled this and the information is huge! I wonder if anyone else has the perfect setup.

I have a new Sony Bravia TV with eArc etc (it's very posh) and have a PS5, DVD/Blu-ray player and a surround sound system. 

This is how I've set things up:

One HDMI into the Arc of the surround sound system into the eArc of the TV.

One HDMI into the PS5 into the TV.

One HDMI into the DVD/Blu-ray player into the TV.

Everything works beautifully. However I have read that I should potentially upgrade my HDMI cables to 2.1 Cat 3. Which is fine, but was wondering what configuration I should setup.

I have been informed that the PS5 HDMI cable is already 2.1 Cat 3 but I'm not totally sure.

Would I need to upgrade all my HDMI cables to Cat 3 or just the Arc to eArc or just the PS5 or both?

I hope I am making sense and any help or advice would be appreciated. 

Thanks in advance and Happy New Year 2023 to you all.
