Running Cable

Ok, so I bought a 500m drum of CAT6a cable, and I worked out where to run it. Well, if you’re in the same situation then this week’s tip is to not just turn the drum on its side and uncoil it as you need more cable – as you uncoil the cable you’ll be putting a twists in it as you go. Please do yourself a favour – get (or make, as I did) a holder so that the cable drum can rotate as you need more cable.

Do NOT feed cable in this way!
Always allow the drum to rotate when feeding cable – you know it makes sense.
