Pfft,

I deal with real comms rooms, with massive patching cabinets and stupidly cold aircon settings :lol:

One client of ours just has packets and packets of different lengths of cat6, all pre maded/certified stuff.

got it in 2m,4m,6m etc. different colours, one colour for voice, one colour for data.

I got some naughty cable management photos ;)

I think its nice to make cables for a comms cab, as you can make them the right length and it looks much tidier then


If you moved your cabbinet around as much as mine i would have to throw cables away every day! :lol:

sod doing 200+ of them tho!
isn't cat5e a higher specification to cat5? if its a requirement, you might to get/borrow some testing/rating equipment too.

Not sure tho.

you can buy a 300m roll of CAT5 cable for £26+vat, decent crimping tool for about £25 and connectors are pennies if your buying a few hundred ;)
What you wiring up?

I know quite a few of you in here work in computers so thought i'd try a post in here.

Basically I need a large quantity of RJ45 CAT5E network cables. Need between 200 and 500 of these. Length wise - 2metres is ideal.

If anyone can supply me with these at a good price then u2u me. No major rush on them, need them by the start of September. Cheers.
