What is Keystone's website? Or is that a user here on the forums (searched and didn't find anyone under that name)....
Thanks

Ah, just found it in another thread. Thanks!
Edit: No prices? Sonofa....

8) Try to stay 4 ft away from HV lines, and if you do have to cross over them, do it at a right angle.....RIGHT?
4' will be next to impossible. Instead, just don't share the same stud cavity if at all possible. And yes, right angle crossings when required.
Ok, that's a start....I'll have more questions no doubt as you guys answer. thanks for the help!
My opinion is you just don't know what devices are going to be run on your AC system (i.e. high current/noise producing) so it's a good idea to keep the "high voltage" separate from the "low voltage". The "Cross at 90 Degrees" minimizes their crossed surface area contact of the high voltage line next to the low voltage line. In other words, if they "have" to touch/cross keep their surface areas of contacts to a minimum (other than that I see no real magic about the 90 degrees practice).
I was speaking from more of a noise isolation issue than electrical insulation breakdown.
Dont be afraid about noise. Noise is not a problem as long as the signal-wires OR the power-wiring are at least slighty twisted. Mostly both are twisted. More: CAT5 is "double twisted": each pair and all the 4 pairs.
Unless you are VERY careful with your wiring for a gigabit network, you will not get gigabit speeds (and that's not just me talking, it's a Fluke Cable Analyzer).

I want to be very careful with my Cat6 wiring....please share with me how to be VERY careful! :wacko:
Also, if you don't want to buy a specialized right-angle drill, get a right-angle adapter head, like this one. I have a similar one that lets you adjust the angle and it's invaluable in tight spaces.

just wanted to throw this out..
I have used http://monoprice.com/home/index.asp
for some of my wiring...
2 x 12' fiber cable for my entertainment center for $12 shipped to my door!!!!
when I paid $65 for a 3' monster previously!!!!!
to me fiber is fiber.. but to others maybe not...
