I have a new house which I have about 30 runs of cat5 going to my
termination point (my garage).

I'm looking for recomendations on a patch panel that I can mount to the
wall that won't cost me a fortune.

Thanks!

-Mike

This is a 12 port PP that I just happen to have the p/n for. They
also come in 24 port models. Screw them to the wall.

Don't blame me. I voted for Gore.

I would suggest looking on ebay. Lots of variety for a good price.

I'm also looking for a good brand to "go by".

belkin sucks
tripp lite is OK
on to number three

I'm thinking black box or panduit...anybody have any experience with these
brands? I'm trying to find something a little more "sturdy" than the cheap
plastic ones offered by the above companies i've tried already.

Try finding one of those keystone jack rack plates.
Then mount it vertically.
