A couple of thoughts, you could drill blank plates and fit the
connectors t=
o
get the custom plates that you want for speakers and aerials (just use
F-type barrels), that gives you total flexibility. You could also give

White a call at Intouch Technologies, www.intouchtech.co.uk
<http://www.intouchtech.co.uk/>
, he supplies custom Euro modules that fit =
a
grid type plate which might fit the bill. For the composite cable then you
could use a run of CT100, it is just a 75ohm video cable terminated with
phono plugs.=20

Hi all,=20
Hopefully I've nearly finished my spec for the cabling work to be done
in my house! Not a big project by this lists standards but it will
effectively floodwire my small house with cat 5 and allow the full
hiding of all equipment except speakers and projector in the cupboard!!

Before I publish spec with a noddy diagram for comment by all you far
more experienced folk could anyone reccomend sources for faceplates
and cable please.

I need one 5 channel speaker faceplate just with banana sockets, think
best i've found is wiseman at =A330. Need a number of quad rj45
faceplates, ideally i'd like a quad in a single gang but maybe im just
dreaming on this one!! and i need a duplex aerial feed with a return
on it as well!!

cable wise i need a box or two of cat 5, and some speaker cable,
speaker cable is cheap as chips and i'll probably use cpc. Its
nothing hifi but for this application will more than suffice!

also need a 10m composite cable unless someone can tell me that using
a normal stereo phono cable (obviously just one plug!) will be fine?!

Thanks in advance....and of course pictures will be taken!
