It's so nice, I have 2 small comments, one is that I usually mount a keystone at both ends - also where access points are installed. Then the fixed installation is untouched when working with any device. The second is that I mostly pull all the data cables out to the right almost at the front of the rack and lead them together down and backwards while all 230V is pulled out to the left and gathered down to either the PDU or a UPS. Then data and high voltage are separated and easier to work with.

Nice install. I would put 2 ciment blocks under the rack just to keep it off the floor. Also might put a sheet of foam between the blocks and the rack to reduce the chance of rust. You can pretty much put any type of thin foam. Contractors usually have some lying around when they put wood 2x4 directly on concrete. Love that Megapro screw driver! I've had mines since 2003 when I started my IT Consulting company and still have it today. I carry that screw driver with me wherever I go (except when I take the plane)! Only issue I had with it is after 19 years of use, 2 of the clips that hold the spare bits are loose so when I open it, they fall out. Very durable, still have all the bits and none of them are worn down but of course I don't abuse my tools! Also added the red one a few years ago that has the security bits. Practical when you need to open up security panels or remove screws from other brand cameras.

@@MactelecomNetworks You might want to just build a shelf onto the wall at about 3-4 feet off the floor. Nice sheet of laminated wood with a couple of triangular brackets under the shelf for support. A local Home Depot will have what you need. Set the rack and bolt it to the shelf so it stays to the shelf. This gets everything off the floor, keeps the equipment from becoming a dust vacuum and allows for working and viewing at eye level. Nice work on the patch panel layout for the short jumpers. I've been doing that for years and pretty much perfected the layout. Cheers!

@@aliazimi91 Its not so much remembering where each cable goes when running it. Lets say we pull 50 drops to a rack, I may or may not choose to label each wire as I am running it but most of the time I end up not doing that since in my experience I have to test each drop anyhow so we are doing twice the work. We run the cable, terminate both ends, tone from the wall plate to the rack, find it with a Fox and hound tool, label and test the pairs, and the map of the building/drops is made during that process. Then we can sort out the wires and group them together by room and separate the POE from the normal. Edit: Also we use color coding/type of wire if we have multiple systems, Cat 6+ Blue for Network, Cat 6+ White for Cameras, White Cat 5e for Phone.
@cg4528 2 жыл бұрын
Label each cable as you pull. Pull a room in order. I like to pull the furthest away from the rack first unless the client provides a map. Room outlets are run clockwise and ascend in number. Also saves cable as you pull the shortest runs last and can see on the boxes how much is left before you start, avoiding waste and short runs. For large installations, we mark up the floor plan, and then leave a copy with the test results for the customer. all these take seconds on a job, more then saving time as no toning needed. Large firms with multiple comms locations and cabinets, really value this approach and the IT guys always thank us for the ease of finding outlets.

DAC is meant for in-rack cabling. You'll want to use Cat6 or fiber depending on your speed, distance, and RF requirements. If It's 300ft of cable, 1Gbit is plenty, and you're not running next to mains wiring, then Cat6 is probably good.

Great looking rack. Never understood not labelling cables during a pull, takes seconds with a sharpe and saves hours of work. If a cable gets damaged during pulling or by another trade it won’t tone. I’m in the UK and I would always expect a new install to go in order left to right from the door for each room. It doesn’t take any longer to install, no toning needed, just test and I can label the outlets professionally, it makes finding outlets instant for customers. Also not uncommon to mark outlets on a map attached to the rack. Running 300+ outlets in a office is not uncommon, not toning that out. Cannot ever understand having say port 17 and 3 on the same wall plate. That’s just crazy!!

7:15 I would have put in 3 screws and let the plastic mount overlap the giant hole. Now you are left with a ugly hole

The hole was patched by the drywallers

Too bad the UDM-P only has 1 SFP+ lan port, now you have to daisy chain the switches.

Yup I wish the second WAN port could be a LAN port. Could always add a aggregation switch in the mix
@nielstaildeman 2 жыл бұрын
@@MactelecomNetworks For 2 access switches that would be an expensive solution. :D Also than the aggregation switch would be the single point of failure.

Maybe this is just me but... I would never run just 1 cable to a wall jack. You never know what will happen in the future. That doesn't mean it has to terminate to a switch, but at least be ran.

I agree. Problem though is what the customer is willing to pay. In this case they only wanted one drop

Don’t mount that rack. Electronics love the dust from the floor and water if it floods.

So you must have missed in the video where I said the customer purchased this rack not myself and its not wall mountable. Either way we may be changing it out for a wall mount

Why come over here and talk shit instead of starting helpful discussion. Every post you've made could have been posited in a way to be constructive for the community instead of sounding like a jerk.

I have done Zip Tie installation for 6 years, and I have never had a problem with my cable, his install (Velcro Straps) is how I was taught in school to do it, I like Velcro straps for sorting and managing the cable while I'm terminated it whether it be a keystone or just a Rj45 but I use zip ties for the finish.
