Sure you need special equipment to terminate, and you could hire someone to do it in a few hours after you have put the wires in the wall. Intuitively I would imagine that it costs less than the hundreds of meters of expensive wire you would have to buy for a house wired with Cat7 …

Slightly related question. At what point is it easier or cheaper to lay fiber throughout your home, rather than CAT with higher and higher insulation?

I think your strategy is most likely to significantly increase the survival time. I have several questions and concerns. 1) we have no real weapons on board, how should I do it quickly? 2) i am in the vessel with some family members, I think these might not be the best options, what’s the most ethical way to choose who to kill, how low should the supply be before we kill the first one?
