Summary: Tips, information, and guidelines for pro network wiring
Comment: This book covers cabling and termination for pretty much every networking medium, from Token Ring and 10base-2 to fiber, and everything in-between. There are plenty of diagrams and photographs (want to know what a 110 block looks like and how to use one?) and frequently asked questions (such as, can a 6-position plug be used with an 8-position modular jack?). Also covered are safety issues and other considerations (how to safely wire cabling through building firewalls; electrical and communications outlets must not be located in the same stud cavity without a physical barrier between the two).

Before I bought this book, the main source of my knowledge about cabling was the Internet. A few minutes of reading this book could have saved me literally hours of research on the Internet.

Sadly, the scope of this book does not include strategies for retro-wiring residences (or businesses, for that matter); it only covers the tools I might need and some basic tips on how to use them. For example, I'd like to know what's the best way to install and use in-wall conduit after the drywall has gone up? How would I fish cable up through a wall on the far (narrow) side of a vaulted ceiling?

Overall, the book contains a lot of very useful information for everyone from the novice to someone who just needs to brush up on the latest technologies.

Summary: Thorough guide on cabling
Comment: This book contains hundreds of illustrations and photos as well as detailed instructions on how to wire all kinds of networks. This is an excellent source of information on what kind of cable to buy, the tools you will need, and what pitfalls to avoid on many cabling jobs. This book is a complete source of information, which is laid out in an easy-to-read manner. With this book and a few tools, you should have no difficulty completing your cabling work.
