yes I ran CAT 5 for both voice and data, so four outlets three cables each, which are pretty flexible in that at the bix panel I can make any cable voice or data.
I only ran one RG6 cable since I have a Satelite receiver and only need one TV in my room
Also the person building the room will add 2 inch conduit from the electrical panel where everything is to the unfinished part of the basement, for future use.
We decided on Laminate flooring since he is going to include very good subflooring which will not effect the laminate, meaning he will add an inch worth of material (don't know exactly what) and then a peice of plywood on top all screwed down. The on top of that he will add the Laminate so it's a good distance from the concrete floor.
Our basement is pretty dry, been living in this house for 2 years, and nothing so far, however we have a drain so what he'll do is buy a "one way flapper" so water can only do down the drain not up in case of a sewer flood etc.
Also I am going with pot lights with dimmers and a sealed ceiling (drywalled) because our basement is not that high, drop ceiling takes from the overall height, and I'm a tall dude so every bit of height counts.
still don't know what I want to do with speakers, I may just run them freely around desks and stuff, we'll see.
A Gigabit switch will do just fine down there, as long as the ports are configurable 100/1000
Cheers for all the assistance!
I'll keep y'all posted!
