Please log in for more thread options up the rack and across the ladder to the backboard, then punch the blue pairs down on a 110 block. Is there a picture somewhere of a very neat job routing the cables at the 110 side? -- Bob Simon remove both "x"s from domain for private replies | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

I'll check with my cable vendor to see if he can supply solid cable. I liked the idea of Ethernet patch cords because they're so cheap (about $1 for a 14' patch cord). Whatever type patch cords I purchase, I want the terminations to look good. I hope someone can give me some pointers. -- Bob Simon remove both "x"s from domain for private replies | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

The "satins" were most likely 26AWG. 110-block will hold stranded 24AWG conductors just fine unless, of course Bob is getting the cheaper 26AWG Ethernet cords. I'm afraid he is though as he mentioned $1 for 14'. Now that's pretty cheap, Bob! ;-) -- Dmitri Abaimov, RCDD http://www.cabling-design.com Cabling Forum, color codes, pinouts and other useful resources for premises cabling users and pros http://www.cabling-design.com/homecabling Residential Cabling Guide ------------------------------------- ##-----------------------------------------------## Article posted with Cabling-Design.com Newsgroup Archive http://www.cabling-design.com/forums no-spam read and post WWW interface to your favorite newsgroup - comp.dcom.cabling - 4604 messages and counting! ##-----------------------------------------------## | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
