Just putting my feelers out there to see if I'm being competetive in pricing CAT6e cable runs. What seems to be the going rate for CAT6e Plenum and PVC runs? Any thoughts?

One pricing is going to vary greatly from location to location. All you can do is take the cost of materials times X amount of time per run plus your termination time. The time pulling it in won't be much different than anything else, but the time it takes to terminate it is going to be quite a bit longer.

So say you allow 1 hour per run for CAT3 or 5 I'd go at least double that for CAT6. Also allow for certifying. I've done very little CAT6 so maybe others can give you a better idea of how much time per run. The last thing you want to do is not allow enough time.

Thanks justbill!!!....That is how I've always priced but thought maybe others out there had a more standard pricing of dollar to run.
