Hi,
I am currently building a new loft space. It will have concrete walls making adding wiring later nearly impossible. So I would like to put cable everywhere and have some sort of patch panel for re-routing signals if I change my layout.
To this end I have been looking at cat5 cable transceivers, with my place just wired with many RJ45 outlets to a RJ45 patch panel.
My cable runs are about 100 to 150 feet.
I want to have data and audio and video possible at all points and it seems a combo of transceivers attached to speakers, TV etc would mean I could put any component anywhere, or plug in a PC.
Are these a good option?
Is there a signal quality loss?
Is it possible to send HDTV to the TV or video projector using one that does component video cables like

The extron products are very expensive are there more economical options?
