Hi folks,
I unfortunately have to move my structured wiring panel for reasons beyond my control.
I'm wondering what the best practice would be in regards to extending my CAT5 and RF Coax. Would couplers be sufficient?
My concern would be degrading the performance of the cables. I have used a CAT5 coupler to extend a connection at work a few times and noticed the speed detected by my machine dropped from a 1Gbps to 100Mbps connection (yes, I do use that bandwidth!)
Thanks.
