There are a lot of cable drops now available on many columns
throughout the space. You could probably connect a little switch there
to connect or more devices.
It should be simple to add more cable drops however, we have a good
system to easily add more cables.

Also the question Rubin asks are interesting: how many, where ? Do
they need to be user-accessible ? If not, they should probably go into
the server room.

(In general, I am all for having a 12x switch that we can
(permanetnly?) mount to the work-desk to connect a cable from, so that
everyone at a table can connect to nice wired network.
