WOW! What a wealth of information. Thank you very much. I've spent a few days doing punchdowns. Not my favorite thing but it beats working in an attic or crawlspace.
I bought a 12 position wall mount patch panel for the data cables. I will terminate 3 cables in a standard 3 position faceplate mounted in the wall next to the patch panel. The phone lines will be terminated 2-6 position face plates. The customer is installing a hub with CAT3 jacks so he can patchcord to that. The phone people do the rest.
Once again, thanks you all for your help.

I pulled in CAT5E and I was gentle doing it.
