How much for a CAT5e module?
You know those things and inch wide that clip into a face plate.
I wanted four but can anyone guess how much I was quoted, each, including discount, on Friday? -- Cheers Dave. |

Oh they had, first presented at the to the USENIX conference in 1993. 1998 is the last copyright date in my newsreader... The graph of UTF-8, ASCII, ISO-8859-1 v time on wonkypedia doesn't show UTF-8 making any significant appearance on the web until 2006/2007. -- Cheers Dave. |

I checked my Screwfix order history and they were £0.30p each from Labgear however they don't seem to stock them at the moment. In fact they don't seem to stock very much CAT5e stuff at all. The Cat 6 version seems to be £2.25 from LAP. Hopefully you weren't asked for more than £10 for four. Cheers Dave R -- Windows 8.1 on PCSpecialist box |

MK ones but the two module MK face plate and MK blank were a far more reasonable £3.96 to the credit card. CEF in Hexham. I'm not sure that the person serving me was the brightess spark in the box. I had wanted a Crabtree surface single metal rockergrid back box(*) but he said they had no stock. I then asked for the modular bits and he brings out a single gang twin grid face plate... (*) Crabtree rockergrid stuff uses smaller (73 mm) metal back box. -- Cheers Dave. |

Trouble is the amount of time and keyboard tapping that is required to apply the discounts to each line of the order. 5 mins to pick out back, 15 mins to work out the invoice... -- Cheers Dave. |
