Just expensive here for premade cables, cheaper to buy a 1000ft box and ends and do it all myself.Too far to get premade cables??
Easier to reconfigure if you run to the patch panel; I also think it's easier to document and inspect. Fewer points of failure if you connect to the switches.
That was one thought, the other side of it is my clean side of not wanting cables hanging out the front
I know it is more work to punch them all but since i am redoing everything anyways, i figured why not go all the way!
Now to find patch panels, just went to a place here and they want $200+ for a 24 port patch panel with the end already in it.

here was priced at almost $400 cause it was some special cat 6 10G patch panel.
