Hi there,
My friend has recently renovated his house and put in about 12 runs of CAT5 and also a good few lengths of coax to various points.
I have no problem with the CAT5 end but how should I terminate the coax at the patch panel end?
Is there some sort of patch panel that I can buy to terminate the coax so that I can then patch in feeds and splitters from there?
Thanks in advance.

any i have personally seen have been terminated in f-type terminations to a distribution box usually with outlets to how many cable ends you have.

Televes do a good range.
