Alright /g/, work shot down my idea of a 2by4 and zipties.

I have 8 desks in the middle of a large room that I need to run networking to. The only way is down from the drop ceiling.

Does someone make like a metal post for doing this? Also they need to run power down it too.
>>
Unless it's fiber networking (which I doubt, since it's to desks) DO NOT run AC lines alongside network cable

You do realize STP cable exists? Have you ever been in a datacenter before? You constantly have to run copper data next to power.

You're going to have to run conduit. Call an electrician.

No you can't it violates electrical codes and OSHA regulations. Extension cords are only to be used for temporary (~<3 month) runs.

It's called a power pole. They come in all shapes and sizes. I can't be fucked to find what we would spec at work (I think we usually let the architects pick them out), so here's the first result on google: https://www.cableorganizer.com/tele-power-poles/
If you're routing power you're gonna want/need to call an electrician, both for safety's sake and liability.
