I am going to be wiring my church with Cat5E for Ethernet networking, running to just about every room in the building.
I was going to run cables down through an existing (empty) hole in the floor from the patch panel location to the basement, above the suspended ceiling and up through the floor again where outlets are needed upstairs. Instead of just leaving the cable loose along the suspended ceiling, I want to clip it to the concrete ceiling above, for neatness. How would you do this? I was thinking screwing these - http://www.tlc-direct.co.uk/Images/Products/size_3/CTB20.JPG (with screw holes) into the concrete every foot or so and cable tying the cables onto them. Each cable run will be anything from 1 to maybe 4 cables together.
Can anyone think of a better solution? I've just noticed these from TLC - http://www.tlc-direct.co.uk/Images/Products/size_3/CTCTPX.JPG Are they a better idea?
Thanks
