Excellent advice from all. I should have known somewhat that coaxial is not what I wanted to run. I've had to deal with ethernet port switches and various ethernet lines so I don't know what I was thinking about with the co-ax thing.

Good advice. I'd never thought about wires snapping under their own weight. Makes sense, over time. Copper's a lot softer than steel. Thanks for the specs on the receptacles. I'll look for that.
