Thanks for all the help. I'm going to try Jenne and ADI Monday to see what I can come up with. If no luck there I have an offer to help me out. Again, thanks everyone for your help.

Shoot Skip, I don't see where I can beat that HD offer with free shipping. Never used that brand, but hey it can't be any worse than some I've tried. I'll go ahead and call Jenne, but I doubt they can do any better even if they have it. Thanks

Comtran wire is decent. Southwire is not really known for datacom, though.

We have used the Southwire cable from Home Depot a few times and I thought that it was pretty good and priced well.
I usually get our cable from Teledata Express since they include shipping in all of their pricing. CAT3 cable is significantly cheaper than their CAT5e and they stock it regularly.

Thanks for the added info, Teledata Express gives me another avenue. With what y'all have given me I should be able to find some tomorrow. Going to check the two distributors and if nothing there go to HD.

Skip,
All I meant was that Southwire is not really known for voice or data cable...the only place I have ever seen it sold is at Home Depot.
I've never purchased any there because I buy my cable through distribution.

Ed thanks for the suggestion. Nice people, decent prices and shipping is included. Looking at their online catalog they have about everything a guy could need for structured wiring.
