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

Universal Patch Panel Mounting for patch panel mounting

24 Port Patch Panel

Cables & Wires

Cat5e cables (data [blue] & voice [white])

  • One Box CAT5e solid core UTP 1000' Blue
  • One Box Coaxial RG6 Quad Shield UL 1000' Reel

Conduit

Carlon for cable conduit

I calculated minimum length of conduit (added some overage):

2" @ 142'

3/4" @ 122'

Carlon Resi-Gard Flexible Raceway

  • Need three standard length coils of 2" P/N SCJ4X1C-100 50'
