Thank you very useful info  :).
That job is on hold until the winter as I'm doing some building outside while it's fine .
It will be interesting to see what I can get down the cables I put in, I can easily put in others if that cable was no good as it's in ducts.
Just after that post there was a roll of CAT5e cable on 'freecycle' but I did not get it. :(

Also be aware that there are two schemes for wiring a patch panel / outlet with 8-core cable.

T568A and T568B - the difference being that the green and orange pairs are swapped between the two schemes.

Make sure that you don't mix the two schemes by wiring the patch panel to one standard and the room outlets to another...
