And you guys talk about overkill. I laugh. Ha.
When the walls were opened at my house for some remodeling I dropped the
requisite 2 CAT 5 runs to each room that I could access as well as an empty
conduit. I used Carlon 1/2" flex - the blue corrugated stuff. About 20
cents a foot.
So I can add CAT 34 cable once it is invented, or fiber, or CATV cable, or
never use it. I'd bet on the last option.
