Hi Alers,
If you had the ability to future-proof your house (imagine open studs,
so you could run anything you wanted), what would you run. Assume a max
of 6 cables per drop?
Last time I ran 4x Cat6A and 2x RG6. However I'm never using both RG6
F-connectors, so I figured I could replace that with something else.
And before you ask, yes, I *AM* using all 4 RJ45 connectors in some of
my drops (and in one place I wish I had MORE Rj45). So, what else
should I run?
My current theory is 4x Cat6A, 1x RG6, and 1x Fiber.
However I'm not sure what kind of "fiber" to run, nor what kind of
connector I should use.
Any suggestions or recommendations?
