So I am going to do someone a favor and do their networking in their newly built house. Problem? The idiots who ran the cabling only ran a SINGLE CAT5 cable to each room. Now I have to split that single cable and use it for both phone and network (ethernet). At least they were smart enough to make a "server" room which has all these cables in it.
Currently, there maybe 20+ outlets in the house (yes, it's a big house). What equipment will I need? They already have the router, filters, and switches. What type of patch panel will I need? I did some runs before using Leviton patch panels, but I'm a bit confused because I read some of the manuals, and for the CAT5 network connectors, it states that ALL wires network wires must be terminated, which I can't do since I'm splitting the single cable.
