Hello Everyone,
I am in need of advice on wiring. I am building a detached garage that is about 130 feet from my house. I want to run cat 5 for the security system (Elk), cat 5 for network and also cat5 for future expansion such as thermostats, motion detectors or whatever comes to mind in the future. Should I run individual cat5 cables or is there a multiple conductor cable that I should use instead? It will be buried underground but I can put it in conduit if needed.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Davin
