Anyone come across a good template/symbol pack for Visio for doing network wiring, patching, switch topologies, etc.? Everything in Visio for networking is 3D, and isn't really conducive to cabling.

gravyfacegravyfaceCisco has some good ones. http://www.cisco.com/web/about/ac50/ac47/2.html They do look 3Dish though, but maybe you'll find some uses for them.
smoaksmoakI know it's hokey looking, but I just drew boxes for the switches, and used the most basic connectors for wiring. It's ugly looking, but it's very easy to read and update.
Chris SIf you haven't looked there yet, try VisioCafe ( http://www.visiocafe.com/ )
There are many vendor stencil packs and/or links to a vendor's actual stencil to download and you may find some stencils you like.
'Netzoom' / altimatech ( http://www.altimatech.com/ ) has some free (and for-pay) stencil packs including Siemons network stencils that some members of our network team used to be after our boss to purchase.
