[clug] Cabling your home and managing your boxen.

[Mike J]

Hey,

A mate of mine just built a house, he installed a rack with patch panels and 
rack mount switches. In every room in the house there are dual data outlets 
either side of the wall next to the power outlets.
This may be an expensive solution though....

Cheers.
