That's a hell of a lot of Cat5! Someone's going to be busy
punching
all those connections. An average run of Cat5 is around 15m - so
that's
400 runs with 800 ends to make off. That's over a week's work!
But Cat5 isn't suitable for all HA wiring. I've installed lots
of 4
and 6 core alarm cable, and lots of 4 and 8 core screened cable. I'll
probably have close to 6000m of signal cabling when I'm finished but it
won't
all be Cat5 - so I can't be a contender for your competition! You're a
'Cableist' you are! :o)
Grrrr....
Simon
(PS. Does it count if I throw a few thousand meters of Cat5 in
the
cellar to win - or do I have to make the ends off and use the cable?)

House
in Britian?
Is this the most CAT5 cable in any UK house?
Tracey Gardner has run over 7 Kms (yes Kilometres) of CAT5 in his new
house!!
For our US readers that's a bit under four miles! Is this a record?
Check out the pics from the NEWS
page.
