So if I were to install this by itself, as I have no security system, would I still punch down the cable coming from the demarcation panel into the line in/out security IDC and then proceed to insert the shorting plug, or would I just ignore the security IDC and shorting plug?
"to remove the nylon runner..." Oh you mean that thing you were supposed to use to peel the jacket back so that you don't score the pairs. -.- thank God you guys didn't "teach" anyone how to run a coax cable splitter or make a fitting.
If you’re running a really simple home setup, a rack with patch panels is total overkill. If you’re doing what this guy is, I’d definitely agree with you.
