I found the fuse box pictures interesting... So lets show off some networking! |

Well, I'm not sure how to do a "photo", as everything is distributed all over. I have a cable modem, that feeds a Dell Optiplex as my web server, mail server, ftp, firewall, etc. That feeds a 10/100/1000 24 port switch. That feeds all the other computers, and also feeds an 8 port POE switch that connects to an intel Atom computer that runs Asterisk, and the POE switch powers 4 Snom voip phones. I have a real POTS analog residential line and a Charter business cable modem line that feeds an analog line over to the telephony card in the Atom. I also have about a dozen other computers that are attached to various gear around the shop, through the 24 port switch. Jon |

Middle part of the setup. There are 'distributed populations' elsewhere serviced by local switches. The sticky out bits are torches. Seem to have a fetish for those (cheaper than test kit, mostly) and a metallic rack is an ideal place to let their magnets stick (there are more down the sides). The excuse is that they will be useful during a power cut, but it would take the length of time the UPS can hold things up to choose which one would be most appropriate. |

Yes the hat fits me, in all companies where I worked I reworked their network cabinets to a proper all labeled, well routed cables with proper identification instead of the rat's nest it was when I arrived, out of my own time on the weekend. It saved me a lot of time during the week when deploying new equipment and troubleshooting time during events. |
