Re: Networking Ideas Questions for a Retro Build. Well the old office is going to turn in to the new kids room and they need the closet.
How about if I have it go to a patch panel on the attic and then down to another patch panel on the office? I am sure I can go directly to the switch at that point but for the sake of "clean"  -- [nUll@dcypher ~]$ |

How about if I have it go to a patch panel on the attic and then down to another patch panel on the office? I am sure I can go directly to the switch at that point but for the sake of "clean"  do exactly this, but i woud get three patch panels.
patch the current drops to 1st patch panel. patch the new drops to the 2nd patch panel. mount these next to e/o and use 1 ft patch cables to patch port 1 to port 1, port 2 to port 2, port 3 to port 3.....
in the new office, take the other end of the new cable runs and punch them down to the 3rd patch panel.
from there, use patch cables needed to terminate devices.
how many total drops? you can also punch down phone on the patch panels. |
