Cat-5 Installation Page
Welcome to my Cat-5 installation page.
In maintaining the network that I am responsible for,
I realized that I should do something to preserve the policy and knowledge
involved in setting up and maintaining the LAN. Additionally, this information
might be interesting and hopefully useful to others out there.
I haven't ever looked into these things formally (other than product
packaging) - my knowledge is from first hand experience and observation
of how other technicians and companies do things.
