[SLUG] Cat5 Small Office installs

Hi everyone,

My office just completed installing an Asterisk system to work as a PBX.
(Huzzah!)

With SIP phones on all the desks, we're having to run quite a bit of Cat5.
I've handled at least one drop already, but to avoid lawsuits my boss would
like drops for each desk (as opposed to the across-the-floor arrangement we
have now). The office is a ca. 1920 bungalow in Ybor City and I'm dreading
the thought of running all of that cable through the attic. Since this list
is my primary source of local technical knowledge, does anyone know of a
local company or individual that has the expertise to handle something like
this? The only existing wiring, besides the one or two Cat5e/Cat6 cables
that I've run myself is Cat2 (ugh) and Coaxial.

Thanks for any insight,

Tyler
