Power Cables and CAT6

AncientMariner
A friend is looking to get both power and internet into an out building.  Rather than overhead the internet via external grade CAT5 or CAT6, I said, what about using armoured CAT5 or CAT6 underground?  His response then being, can I pull both power and CAT5/CAT6 through the same underground duct?  It would be about 10 metres.


To me sounds unwise, so would appreciate comments.


Many thanks.

    That EV-Ultra cable is interesting - I wonder how they plan to terminate the CAT5 at the consumer unit end....
