Re: guidance on cat5 wiring a house?

My advice is take as many cables to a room as you can. Even if many
are just left unterminated in the wall cavity.

Subject: [ukha_d] guidance on cat5 wiring a house?


Hi,

A friend is renovating a house and I suggested he take the opportunity to
put cat5 throughout and then he could make use of it for video and audio
etc
- so he came back and said what a great idea but how?

And I'm kind of stuck - I'm no networking expert and assumed that you just
run cat5 back to a convenient node0 point and when he is ready can install
a
patch panel switch etc but can anyone advise on the pitfalls and any advice
on placement in rooms - how many lines into each room etc

Thanks in advance

Rich
