Computer Cables

Computer Cables

Okay, I know I’m not very techy, but I do know, our computers and printers won’t run without proper cables. Most electronics (except for printers) come with the necessary cables to run them but anyone who has ever moved, relocated or even had pets around their electronics knows that there are times when we need to purchase a replacement USB cable, power adapter or power cable. For the adventurous techy who may be looking to wire their own home or apartment, there are even wall plates and wall jacks for just about any need. My husband once ran a cable from the router located in the home office to my laptop in the family room by drilling a hole through the 2 sheets of drywall and pushing the cable through the two, not so attractive, holes. This probably would have looked much nicer if he had installed a wall jack to cover the holes!

I know I can go to the big box stores and pay top dollar for name brand cables and jacks, but many times they have a very limited selection and they are so expensive.

Why not purchase all the necessary replacement cables, jacks and even a HDMI Wall Plate online. These are the same high quality, and in some cases even better, than the name brands in the big box electronic stores and the prices are typically lower so money is saved.   I now know exactly where to look the next time my husband drills through drywall!

    It can be frustrating how the cables for stuff just seem to disappear many times. :P

    Alan - I know what you mean! We are forever losing the digital camera cables! One of the reasons I insist on having a built in card reader in my computer! :-D

    Wow! I really like this post. you did a good job. I wrote a post for this company many months ago, and practically had to bluff it! I don’t know anything about cables and tech stuff. I had to keep asking Mike questions just to make sure I knew what I was talking about.

    Peggy, I’ve gone through a few cables myself, so I guess it sort of came naturally, I didn’t have to get too specific! :-D
