greetings all

Would anyone know of a reasobly priced supplier of Network cabling (cat5e) along with boots, plugs, wallboxes.

I'm looking for about 500metres of cable (preferably in a color, not grey)

so far got a quote for R3.05/metre ex vat -
 
I bought a few years back from a supplier called Wirecom (that is their Centurion branch but they have branches in other areas too).

Not sure how their prices are in the grand scheme but they were pretty good back when I bought, also give them a call since their web-site prices aren't always up to date but they supply CAT5/6 as well as COAX and wireless equipment (their prices on COAX were reasonable, I haven't ever bought wireless equipment from them)

EDIT: Just looked online seem their price is 3.10c excl. per meter for CAT5e solid core, stranded is 3.95c excl. per meter, but last time I bought from them they sold it for cheaper than the website when I bought a box of 150m of cable (much cheaper).

There's also a place in Hatfield (hello alcohol....) called "the cableman". They sell UTP cable for damn cheap, somewhere around R3.50/m including VAT. No minimum requirements. You can find their number in the white pages.
