Hey all,
I'm getting ready to start buying cable and what I've found is that everything I can think I'd want can be converted and ran over Cat5e. Here's my list of things to do:
HD Distribution
Analog/Digital Audio
Phone
Ethernet
With 2 Cat5e cables I can use blauns to distribute Component HD, Analog and Digital Audio as well as IR. If I toss 2-3 extra runs (in addition to a single run each for ethernet and phone connections) as well, then I should be good to go for other devices or necessities I haven't thought of yet.
I also figure that buy running Cat5e, as opposed to mini-coax, once HDMI settles down a bit I should be able to find an HDMI to Cat5e blaun and it would just be a matter of switching out hardware at both ends as opposed to having to try to rerun wire after the sheet rock is up.
Anybody have any thoughts that might make me rethink my position or is there something I may have overlooked?
