That was really my first reaction to this article RJ-45 would be cool. My second was makeing it removable; that is really cool, but who needs to extend it? Sorry for the vile amount of adds on my page (2 hosting popups, 1 DNS popup, and 2 add banners; At my front page)
AX:
may be a few days before I actually get into this.  I have changed my ideas a little.  I was originally going to go into the gun to remove the wires completely because I didn't want to see a splice outside the cabinet.  now I have decided to cut it closer to the box and splice the part you don't see.  but after I do it I will write it up.  Also it's perfectly cool to post on the site if you like.
AX:
ok I did the modification and it came out perfectly.  actually I put more than one connection the wore as I will explain inthe tutorial.   I will write it up thursday.
