YALANCT (Yet Another Loxone And Network Cabling Thread)
hello all. my thoughts are turning to first fix electrics and I need to decide what cable I'm going to pull through for my Loxone system and networking.
Network
I've pretty much decided that my network cables will be Cat6 as I don't have any switches capable of 10Gbps and if I eventually do then Cat6 will do 10Gbps under 55m and my longest run in the house will be about 30m so I really don't see the point of installing Cat6a.
BUT....and there's always a but s
can the cross-connectors be cut or do you have to buy the exact size you want?
here's my spreadsheet showing the different prices and availability
the Loxone prices are so high because of the minimum quantities you have to buy in. it's interesting that uk.farnell.com and cpc.farnell.com have wildly different prices with CPC being a lot cheaper. but CPC don't stock the 2002-4157.
