Cisco Console Madness!

Recently I did some hardware upgrades to our backbone, replacing aged 2600 routers with 2800 series. Durring this process, I re-arranged our VLANS a bit and concequently had to move our Cisco WAPs to the new VLAN. Now with 8 APs spread across a building and some high enough to need a SkyJack to access the console this could have beena time consuming process. Luckly I had an ace up my sleve. Durring the initial install of the APs, I had our wireing company run 2 drops per device, one for Ethernet, the other for the console.
Long story short, I was standing next to the patch pannel programming each AP and thinking this would be a great standard practice for all of our CISCO devices. Food for thought~
