No all the wiring is inside one building it's just a very big warehouse
we have just purchased and I need to extend the network between floors
as well along the total length. Our current network is much smaller and
consist of 3 hubs linked together via cat5, in what I think is called a
'star' arrangement. Things are about to get a lot more complicated :)
Thanks for all the info.
