Reply to comment by VanillianArt in can you run an ethernet cable through an empty conduit in your house on your own? by VanillianArt

You can but I would attempted to avoid using male ends as the little retaining clips tend to get broken. If both sides have a conduit box get female ends.

Go to your local computer shop they should be able to sell you bulk cable pretty cheap then grab female ends and face plates.

If you want to run it with the male end attached look at getting something like these guys. It will keep your install looking nice and clean.

If you have to pull a preterminated cable, it can be really helpful to tape those down.

And if it’s preterminated, you’re going to need a bigger conduit.
