Home Structured Cable System
Distribution Center
Since this is retrofit on existing 20+ year old house I decided to securely bolt 3/4" plywood to wall and build a distribution center. The metal panels from various vendors would have been nice but the costs did not outweigh the benefits. When we build a new house some day I'll get the fancy distribution panels.
I'll post details once I'm done.
Distribution Modules
LANshack products:
Universal Patch Panel Mounting for patch panel mounting

Need four standard length coils of 2" P/N SCJ4X1C-100 50'
Need one standard length coil of 3/4" P/N SCE4X1-100 100' length
