wire run together
Hello, I'm re-doing a room and was wondering if it's ok to run the romex,phone, and cable wires together through the walls?? Should I drill seperate holes for each wire? Will they interfere with each other reception or any other way?? Thanks in advance, Eric

Hotarc, Thanks for the super quick reply. How far apart do they need to be?? I can seperate them about 8 inches in one part of the wall? Can the run the phone,cable together?? Thanks Eric

Phone and cable together are fine.
8" is good, and probably good enough. Farther apart might be better if the lines run parallel for a long distance.
Definitely drill separate holes.
Cat5 is less subject to interference than cat3 which is less subject to interference than untwisted phone wire.
