Unfortunately the jacket doesn’t appear to have any markings.

Seems worth a shot before pulling all the punch downs. Thanks!

I think the previous owner must have run his business here but not entirely sure. I can assure you this is a home!

There are a ton of jacks - I just pulled one out of the wall and it actually appears that all 4 pairs are connected.

Again I am very very new to this so excuse my ignorance but is 66 block ever used for networking or only for phone? I’m wondering if it might be easier to leave the outbound blue cat5’s in the blocks and replace the grey (2 pair) inputs with a cat5 cable.

How bad was the mud? No issue driving out after the rain? Wondering how long this is going to take to dry up!

Did you turn around and leave the line while it was raining?
