I'm just about to finish cabling my house with Cat 5. Before the ceilings go back up I wanted to check I'd taken everything into consideration.
I haven't really given CCTV much consideration and if I am to include cabling for this I need to make some quick decisions as the ceilings have to go back in the next few days.
I could run some co-ax for the cameras. But since I don't yet know what type of system I want and where I would put it I don't know how many cables to run and to where.
But if I could run the CCTV over Cat 5 then all I've got to do is install another say 8 points in the loft. Then I can route the CCTV signal anywhere over the house.
Does anyone have experience of doing this? I saw this balun and wondered if it's the key to everything:
Thanks for any help!
