I may be late to reply, sorry about that.
I wouldn't even bother with CAT3 for phone or anything). Use CAT5 and
only terminate the 2 or 4 wires you need. Plus, if you use CAT5 for
phone, it will allow you to upgrade your phones to digital or business
class in the future.

	Dear List,
	
	I just want to thank you all -- I have never learned so much in
such a
	short time :)
	
	After some thought, discussion with the wife, and the lack of a
cover
	plate with what I wanted; I have taken out the 120 line, and now
	thinking about putting in the RCA cables for Audio and Video
(three
	lines) so that with a "flip of a switch" we can watch the
digital cable 
	or the DVD on the TV downstairs.  Anyone see a problem with
that?
	
	Cat5, Coax, Phone (cat3 right?) and 3 RCA cables in same box,
cables
	running down inside wall, into two holes to basement ceiling.
	
	------ 
	|    |  Wall Box with up to 8 openings in face-plate
	------
	  |  |
	-------------- 1st floor floor/basement ceiling - Two seperate
holes
	  |  |
	  |  RCA Cables (3 - two audio 1 video Red, Yellow, White)
	  |
	Phone, Coax, Cat5
	
	After reading all your great original replies, I don't think
there will
	be any problems, but thougth I would ask again :)
