running cat5 isn't that hard is it?

OK why are they so interested in running coax all of a sudden if they're already running cat5 now?
Why didn't they start with coax to begin with? So if I understand it right, the path would go fiber to coax to small run of cat5 at your computer? I guess that'd work.

They aren't. What they are interested in is using the existing coax that is already there. You say that running Cat 5 isn't hard, but, in general, running any internal wiring is an expensive exercise, especially when trying to achieve a good cosmetic effect.

Also, the average service call to install CAT5 in a home is over 4 hours! No one wants a sweaty service guy in your home for over 4 hours.

They'rerunning nothing. The MOCA and HPNA is only for utilizing existing runs. New runs would be CAT5e.
