First, thanks to all who replied, I guess the overall message is
clear - plenty of Cat 5!

However, this raises a further question or two:

I have thought that X-10 systems were a way of communicating through
the mains wiring. If we use this system, why would we need so much
Cat 5? In other words, shouldn't it be one or the other (to some
extent - there will obviously be some overlap)?

If we run mucho Cat 5 (and Ian talks about 3 nodes each with 4 Cat5
cables in some rooms) how are the cables terminated in the room? Do
we have banks of sockets in ranks across the walls?

Thanks again,

Steve & Lynda
