[quote][i]Originally posted by Dom[/i] Yeah that's the basic of network - PC's -> Switch. If the internet comes into play then you'll either need a router and attach it to the switches uplink or run the internet through a server and proxy everything through that. As for FTP (Foiled Twisted Pair) and UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair), ideally you'd use FTP for long run's up/down walls etc and UTP for patch bay connections as it's tricky to terminate FTP. And to be honest, i would use UTP unless you're running stupid lengths. But yes, 99% sure you'd need FTP modules on the sockets. Most patch panels will accept FTP/UTP cables etc :thumbs: edit - it might also be worth looking at a central smallish server (ie: Windows Server / AD Domain), as it would be your proxy server for the ADSL, plus some where that backups could be made to (although an external backup solution is a must, and keep it locked in the safe etc).
