I think it comes from his sump pit. In some area it is only used as a vent
for radon not for actual water discharge. The water line will go out of the
side of the house.

Tony, you said the vent is used for your sump pump. Are you certain that's
its only use? Here in Colorado sump pumps are required to discharge to
daylight and may not be connected to the sewer. Is yours connected to the
sewer, or does it discharge to daylight?

I'm trying to figure out the best path, other than drilling and the
time consuming process of fishing/drilling through floors, to get a RG6
cable and Cat5e cable from my attic to my basement.

I have heard that you can run plenium Cat5 down environmental vents
without any issues. The sewer vent runs from the attic to the basement
and is the only direct path I can see. The pipe is 2" and is used for
my sump pump in the basement. I was going to cut the pipe and use a 45
degree capped splitter for the wires in the basement to avoid drilling
ugly holes directly in the pipe.

Is this NOT a good idea? Any restrictions on if I can do this with RG6
or Cat5E?

I'm in Georgia, if that helps any in regards to code.

Thanks!

Tony
