How do I run a data cable in an attic with blown fiberglass insulation

Choose the right cable: Cat6 or Cat6A cables are recommended for most applications.
Plan the route: Determine the path from the point of entry to the desired outlet.
Prepare the insulation: Use a blower or vacuum cleaner to clear a path for the cable.
Run the cable: Wear gloves and a mask to protect yourself from fiberglass. Carefully lay the cable along the cleared path.
Secure the cable: Use cable staples or tape to secure the cable to joists or studs.
Avoid sharp bends or kinks: These can damage the cable.
Test the cable: Once installed, test the cable to ensure it is working properly.
