Pulls

Pulls

I did a few test wire pulls so I could measure the average wire distance for each pull. I have 280 drops total counting all of the different devices, APs, etc, and I will run 2 cables to each location for redundancy. The shortest pulls are around 30 ft, and the longest are about 250ft.

It looks like I need about 80,000ft (about 24km) of Cat6A if I account for pulling overages and box length. I wonder if I order 80 boxes on Amazon if they will still ship it 2 day? The UPS guys will probably not be amused. 80 boxes is about 2500lbs of wire.

Fiber demands are much lower, around 5000 ft or so.
