The cabling is just so I can hide the receiver, PS3 and media streamer in a cupboard, so is a relatively short run from them to the TV. For media storage and server, I'm already using 802.1ad from my ts439 Pro to my switch. I'm actually now wondering if just a straight cable in a conduit (in case of upgrades) would not be the easiest setup, as the termination is not visible and would eliminate 4 connections, but would have preferred a cleaner look with wall plates. |
