Left a comment and a like on your video on YT. :)

 

May I ask, what type of ping do you get to the AU dedicated servers for (if you play) Call of Duty?

Damn, that is nice! I am in the market for a cheap network server rack. Any advice?

 

I got mine from a New Zealand second hand trading website called trade me. I don't know what you have in the UK but i'm sure you know, it seems that the bigger the rack the cheaper it is second hand the rack i got was RRP $1500, but second hand got it for $400. My one is 24ru which is way overkill for me. I guess it depends on what you are putting in it, if you are just puting in a patch panel and switch R1 and a file server you probs only need like 6-10ru.

 

Just look around on your second hand trading websites i'm sure something will come up :)

I've worked in Cable TV headends, Earth Stations, Cellular towers and with all sorts of satellite receiver wiring through the years.  That is one of the cleanest and neatest "home systems" I have seen.  Add a few string tied lines (you don't want to cinch down on cable ties with gear like this) in a nice uniform fashion, along with just a little wire routing and you are ready for a cover-shot!  LOL  

 

Really nice brother!

Thanks bro! yes i try not to use cable ties i mainly use velcro straps but i had to use cables ties to stop the Rj45 connectors from braking as there was some strain on the patch panel.

It looks damn good man.  I have been to homes with really expensive gear in oak cabinets with crystal clear glass doors, only to find a fucking rats' of cables that took my 3 times as long to follow, as fix. 

 

I wish everyone was as neat, clean and detailed as you are.  Including me.    :P

Damn bud I thought I was bad with two different punch downs and the rack mounted equipment. I ran 3 or 4 cables to each wall jack location, just incase LOL. Good stuff! I love to see someone got to such levels of networking, It makes me feel better about my own obsession. Love it!
