Hi,
So I have the ceiling open of my kitchen for renovations at the moment and want to run an Ethernet cable from the room on one side of the kitchen to the room on the other side of the kitchen. I also would like the option of replacing the cable easily in the future should such a need occur. My theory is that if I run a length of plastic flexible conduit through the ceiling with the ethernet cable inside of it, then if I need to replace the cable I can just remove one cable and then push the new cable through the conduit and hopefully it will feed all the way through to the other side?
Not decided whether to just create some covering for the terminating ends on the outside of the wall or to break into the wall itself to install a small patch port.
Anyone tried this or got experience with this?
Depending on the space I would go with PVC piping, it’s cheap, easy to install and universal.
Make it drop via elbow back in each room wall and if you want your life to be easier, make it go all the way to an access panel.
From there you can just tie up the new cable to the old one when you want to replace it.
