Hey all,
The house Im moving into has cat 5e wired to every room. The strange part to me is that the junction box is outside. The last house I lived in had the junction box in a closet which made it very easy to plug in a switch and have everything nice and safe from the elements.
There are 8 cat 5e cables that run to various areas in the house. And there are 6 coax cables.
I would like to have all 8 cat 5e setup for ethernet. I also need 1 phone line setup but I think that will run directly of the cable modem, and I can use wireless extensions for other rooms. I also plan on having 3 tv's setup with cable boxes.
What's the best way to get this all a wired together for my home network? My last house had a power outlet inside the junction box and this house doesn't have that. Imgur photo below.
