Hello everyone, I am pulling my home’s existing ethernet cables from the garage and into my home to install a network rack. Currently my garage does not have insulation (for a future project), so it get’s too hot during summer for my router to live there, so I want to install it in my mudroom where there is insulation. My question is if I drill a hole to put some sort of cable cover (ie. https://a.co/d/1hHosME) will it affect my home’s insulation too much where I should be doing something else? If so, what should I do to improve the cable runs?
If the garage is too hot for your router, it probably isn’t the best place for your network and/or server gear either. Unless you’re intending to water-cool it.
(To put it another way, are you absolutely sure you’ve thought this through and there is no small-network-rack-sized space in the house? Under the stairs, in the back of a closet, or on top of a cabinet, maybe?)
There isn’t all the cables terminate outside the house on the outer wall for the garage. It was like that when it was built.
