A company I do a lot of commercial subcontract work for has asked me to give them a price on wiring approximately 70 townhouses for voice, data and video. My plan so far is to provide (2) CAT5e and (2) RG6 Quad-Shield to a single location in each bedroom, the living room, and kitchen (a counter top location), and (1) CAT5e in the kitchen (for a wall phone). Additionally, two RG6 Quad-Shield cables will be run from an attic location to the distribution panel, for possible satellite connections.
I also plan to provide (1) CAT5e 4-pair, and one RG6 Quad-Shield cables as a demarc extension from the building demarc to each units distribution panel.
With this in mind, I have a few questions:
- Is anything I have listed above considered too much or too little? 2. Are there any multi-dwelling unit considerations I should be aware of? a. access to attic space for first-floor-only units (satellite installation) b. routing of cables to a unit via another units space (attic)
All of the residential work I've done before has been retrofits of single family homes, so this is a new area for me, and any help would be appreciated.
