RE: Telephone Over Cat5

["James, Daniel" <daniel.james@xxxxxxx>]

Umm, easier to photograph than to explain........ (mental note, get on with
building my website :-)

The rear of my patch panel is where you connect your CAT5 to, each RJ45
socket on the front of the panel has a corresponding IDC punchdown strip on
the rear of the panel.

I'll take the example of Pin1 (as its the same for all)

Connect all 6 Pin1s together by punching down a cable into Pin1 Socket1,
then punching this cable into Pin1 Socket 2 etc., now repeat this process
for the other 5 cables and then all the sockets will be wired together.

Then take a feed from your BT socket, and connect this to one of the
punchdown areas for one of the sockets, and hey presto, you now have 6 live
extensions on your patch panel.

I've not seen a patch panel in the raw yet so I don't know how they
work, but does that mean you are creating 6 outlets from 1 input to
the back of the panel?

How do you do this daisychaining? (patch panelling for beginners!)
