Douglas Cables

Someone is moving into the vacant space in the building behind the Douglas C.O.. They want a couple of desks in the far corner from the door, a phone bar on the opposite wall, and a LAN drop in the little 10x10 office.

Hauled a couple of reels of cable and dollies over, pulled floor tiles and found relocatable cables. Cool. Where they want the desks a pair of Cat-5 Quads were waiting under the floor. Near the conference table were three more quads -- and since OCS ran 'em they had enough slack to reach the far wall for the phone bar. (Phone bar is a misnomer -- they want Ethernet connections, not telephones. At least they didn't mention telephones.)

I don't know exactly where they want the phone bar, and I don't have holes in the floor for the cables yet, so I coiled up the three quads and stuffed 'em under the floor as shown on the right. The purpose of this entry is so I can find them again.
