Renovation Updates :- Some loose ends ....
A Dummy / Noob Household Ethernet Networking During renovation earlier I wanted some wires that transfer internet data that I see used in my office to be incorporated in my house. At the time I do not really know what I was doing as I am not a technically versed guy. I was just thinking that wire should transfer faster than wireless and wireless may not reach some areas (eg 1st floor) in the house. So I asked my electrical wireman contractor to do it for me but he dunno and do not want to do it. So I went out and bought a box of CAT 5e cable and gotten my wetwork contractor to conceal the cable for me. The cable were left jutting out of the wall as the wetwork guy dunno how to "fix" the wire end. This is a case of the blind (me-dunno) leading the blind (Contractor-dunno). Finally gotten some-one to "fix" the cable end. These picture location is the wall behind where the UNIFI's BTU and Modem are located. Loose Dangling CAT 5eCable jutting out from the wall. ![]() The Cable are all attached to Keystone Jack and the Keystone jack to the Faceplate. ![]() The Faceplate is finally attached/cupped to the wall (Inside the wall there is a faceplate wall base -the same thing used by wall power points) ![]() Note: the other end are located in 4 diffrent part of the house where i think I might use it in the future 2 are located behind the living room TV (HyppTV Box, possible small PC, possible Gaming Console) 1 are located on the 1st floor living room (possible extra wifi modem for 1st floor) 1 are located in the Master Bedroom Finally all the avalaible ports from the current WiFi Modem are connected to the "Ah Beng's Ethernet Network" ![]() Could have done this soooo much better if i knew what I was doing initially. Errrr.... What is a server ah??? What does it do???? Can use server here ah??? What else can I do to utilise this network thing I have set up here???

OMG! I followed yr whole Reno journey since yesterday. Managed to reach page #46, finally!! Phew!!
Great job, Phoenix!! I went thru the similar journey a few yrs ago, but a much simpler one as mine was a brand new house. After seeing what u've done, I now dare to look for a second-hand house and go for a great makeover... But not too soon lah, maybe in another 5 yrs' time.. I can see u are enjoying the whole process and the great outcome, plus a new baby....Kung hei!Kung hei!! Trust me, a new car should be on the way this year or maybe next.... |

To list a few Errr... from what I understand from your post you mean to have more than 1 receiving port (keystone jack with faceplate ) at the TV area , 6 port as you listed.- 1 for TV - 1 for Media Player - 1 for Unifi - 1 for Game console - AV player <If have> - Blue ray player <if have> So I end up put a switch in the TV area, and only use one port. The other port as spare. I got another 6 LAN for CCTV yet to terminate. Is your termination area close door / store room, if yes than why not use the patch panel like I do. You have 2 ports at your TV area, you use 1 port and have balance 1 port unused. How does a switch (what is a switch) helps to acheive this? What is terminate??? Sorry for all the questions here. Technical dummy here. This post has been edited by phoenix69: Apr 3 2012, 09:04 AM |
