My house is wired with cat6 rated cable and jacks, with several jacks in some of the rooms. I have a 16-port patch panel in the room that also has the internet connection and other stuff. The patch panel is a pain in the derrière. I find it nearly impossible to punch down wires in it well enough to get a good connection. It is a Trendnet purchased from that store in Wilsonville.
At the same time I have little problem with keystone jacks, that is, as long as I stay away from the tool-less jacks, which I find impossible. (I don't have enough fingers that are small enough to hold everything at the same time). I am considering ditching the 16-port patch panel and getting a simple blank keystone jack holder, then pulling all the wires currently in the patch panel and putting them in keystone jacks instead. 1) Does this sound like a good idea? 2) I can get a 24-port blank keystone jack panel lots of places online, but does anyone know of any place where I can get one locally? _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
