Hi All

I built a new home and I want to put in a new network.

Currently I have cat-5 and co-ax cable running to 4 rooms, they are on seperate wall-plates. I have them terminated in my garage.

What i want to do is put up some type of box, one for Co-ax and one for CAt-5, so that I can have one main line feeding data into the each box and then be distributed to the outlets in each room.

IS this possible, and if so where would I find these types of boxes? or what are they called?


Also I am thinking of putting a router on the cat-5 box for a firewall. Is this good idea or necessary?

TIA,
