where's the photos of good work?

way off topic

yeah im a computer guy who anytime i see a phone guy i try to get as much experience from them, even if its working for minimum wage on weekends just to get some knowledge

The remodeled space in all concrete, all open, all white and main paths are exposed surface, consisting of:

• 127 Cat 5e
• 3 RG-6
• 1-6 AWG Ground Wire

Yeah, but how come no curtains on the window? :db:

Now that is the way to do it.

<3 techflex. If you don't mind my asking, why do you ziptie the outside of the techflex?

We had to install split-tube due to cables "T-ing" off.

You should post that photo by the rack so people know what it once looked liked before the CG's totally destroyed it.

Nice work!

(disclaimer: I'm a CG)

I agree with pictures of the rack...I always take pictures after doing the job right and post them next to the equipment. I find that if people think someone else gives a heck, then they are more likely to do it right.

As for patch panel vs. non-panel, I'd say it depends on the environment. But doing it to save money is probably almost always foolish. What does a patch panel cost? Compare that to a 66 block. What does a 6 foot patch cable cost? What does 6 feet of cross connect cost?

(that said, I really like VoIP - but it sure ain't cheap, and it needs people who actually understand how it works - who are thus hard to find and expensive to hire; you definitely don't save money this way!)

I thought cg=cable guy!
