Pretty much any data cable you see in homes can be made to run Ethernet at a decent rate with just an adapter at each end. Coax can easily carry data at Gigabit speed.
Cat5e has been the standard for decades, and can run gigabit speeds as well.
- fidotron 3y agoIt is interesting how all of you jumped to the wiring and conduits as the problem, when the point I was trying to make (badly) was even if the wiring was there then there is a distinct lack of things on the market to connect to it which do anything useful. We have a chicken/egg situation for home networks where normal people only see them as useful in the wifi sense, so we fail to exploit the potential we could have if things were wired.
- jpc0 3y agoThis is not entirely true. The things exist, you just aren't aware of it or it isn't the form factor you want. List a thing and I could likely give you a product that will solve your problem, it may just be out of your price range because it isn't mass produced or doesn't look the way you want again, it's not mass produced.
