We’ve used trueCABLE here at work as well with good results, thanks for the specifics as I generally do most of the grunt work and am removed from the more technical aspects of the ordering so the details here are greatly appreciated.
I hope this is appropriate here. I figured it fits the general theme of things considering if we’re self hosting there’s gotta be some hardware involved.
I’ve got a house built in the 1960s US. I’m working on upgrading my security infrastructure to a PoE system as my previous choice of wireless system was a poor decision on my part. I have all my ‘gear’ if you will in the basement but I don’t have any convenient drops from the attic to my basement. I need to do a total of 8 drops from attic to basement. I’m not too versed in wiring things through a home (ie. minimal damage to walls and such) I’ve done long runs in warehouses but that was essential all open space.
My main questions are:
1. is there any specific conduit I should be looking at to pull the runs through the walls?
2. Is there any specific tools that I need to know about to make this job easier? I assume one of those line pullers would be handy in this case ( the hell are they actually called?
3. Any other tips and tricks from those of you who have done something similar?
