Hi all,The last 8 months we extensively renovated and extended our house, adding on 55 square meters, and pretty much gutted the rest of the house (excluding kitchen & bathroom), so I took the opportunity to wire up the entire house for data, TV, and speakers in the lounge.Thanks to sbiddle for the DIY structured cabling blog posts, and other users (e.g. tarlen, for feedback on dynamix enclosures).Used most of a 305M roll of Cat6 cable, 150M roll of RG6 TV cable, and 150M roll of speaker cable (CL3 in wall rated), all Dynamix.Enclosure is Dynamix too, 42", plus astandard 19" rack patch panel mounted vertically on HWS patch panel brackets, and the universal black plates to mount various items (and the white shelves I built).Took some time terminating all the cables, but pleased with the result, as well as happy with the dynamix kit, all works well for a good price.All of the work I managed to do myself, with my wife helping run the cables (while I crawled around trusses in roof space).Plus got some spare room at the top of the cabinet which I may use for some home automation stuff in the future, perhaps some raspberry pi's talking to some sensors.Cabinet is nicely tucked away in linen cupboard.Only things left to do are tidy up the RG6 cables at top right of cabinet, and also a few of the cat6 cables need the slack pulled up from ceiling, so the cabinet door doesn't touch them when closed.Photo below.Yellow cables is the fibre connection.Green cables going to Ubiquiti AP via POERed cable to NAS (Qnap can't fit inside enclosure, so is sitting on a shelf in cupboard)Black cable connecting modem to switchBlue cables to devicesAnd one grey cable from modem voip to outlet in house for standard phone (using rj12 - rj45 cables)
