Have a look at this site.
300m of this cable €850. Capable of 2.5gb.Currently installing in my build.
Not cheap but flexible and future prove to a fair degree.
There is no doubt that the Kerpen HomeNet® system is a good product and gives a uniform connection system across the house but at what price!
300M of Cat5 can be got for less than 100 euro. Box of plates, crimping tool and fittings €50 - €70. Then once you've settled in you can purchase items such as these http://www.svideo.com/vi.html around the €30 mark to connect devices for sound/video.
The components are what I would be worried about with the Kerpen system, you've got to get the proprietary component from them to connect your devices.
A double faceplate (silver) CAT5 will cost no more than €15.
Am I correct that this is only S-Video or composite video so no HD possible??? If that is the case, I'd rather spend more money to go for high capacity solution like the one bakerbhoy mentioned.
If I see it correct you can use any active or passive equipment with this system. There is no need to use their components as you discripe. All you would use is a cable with their connector on one end and a SCART, RJ45, RCA, F, etc... on the other end.
Cable 300m .... €850Thanks Bakerbhoy- That looks like "Cat 8" cable , does the €850 include all the face plates and the routers/switches etc?- this stuff starts getting very expensive Plus its supposed to be a specialist job to terminate?
I would be interested to hear your thoughts on the above?
