I would just like to say there is a simplier way of doing this. If the
Condo Assoc is going to be aholes, like most of them are and they are saying
only 1 cable can be seen well give them only one cable. Instead of soing
spliting or any wierd nonstandard hack. Simple take 2 cat 6 cable take some
zipties to hold them together and then put Heat Shrink casing over them.
Now you only one one visable cable. and they dont have to be any the wiser
that there is really two cables there.
But at the same token it might just be easier to drop a cheap namebrand 4/5
port switch at the end of the run instead of trying to run two cables or
split them out.
