    You always impress me with your attention to detail and the neatness if your work. Many people don’t recognize the importance of neat work until it cones time to troubleshoot. My old trade school instructor would be pleased. He always emphasized to us apprentices to do our work in a neat and workmanlike manner. Hope we get to see more on site videos.

      Yep especially after seeing the mess of wires in our network cabinets at the schools I work at. I'm an IT tech for a school district. I spent many hours about 3 years ago cleaning up the cabinets at 2 sites. They're not pretty, but they look much better than when I started. Its one of my summer projects, but we have too many other projects going on and I feel we're very understaffed relative to the amount of projects we have.

    Nice job! One recommendation for mounting the equipment. Put the screws in the bottom holes and not diagonal or the top. As gravity holds the top. Plus its a good habit for when you put taller than 1RU items in as it eliminates any torquing and twisting of the equipment.

    If I had that job, I think I would have convinced the Project Manager (probably just one of the Doctor's) to buy and have installed (using different cabling paths) backup CAT-6 cables to each outlet in all critical ares. I managed the Network install of my Brother-In-Laws medical office (as a favor with no Pay). About 6-months later, a fan in one of the Air Conditioner vents was replaced, and they accidentally cut (and pulled-out for some reason) four of the CAT-6 cables, resulting in the loss of network for two Doctors on their Office Desktops (fortunately redundant using WiFi), and connectivity to their CT Scan and one X-Ray room. It took almost a week to get everything back up by running/replacing the runs (once again gratis on my part and also leading to injury on one of my knees - however there were many doctors and 'easy to look at' Nurses around to help). Lesson Learned, unless the 'easy to look at' is considered a bonus.

    Hi Kodi, I really love your unifi videos, I was wondering if you could make a video on unifi protect, access and talk multi site management (having same credentials and permissions that work between different sites with different dream machines or UNVR or cloud keys). Basically the setup is going to be to have a user be able to use their door access credentials in different offices and can call a different site/office with and internal extension through talk.

    How do you have an AI Theta camera behind the desk? HIPPA regulations prohibit that as it can pick up personal and private data on computer monitors. for the door access, is that a back door to the office, or the network room? Did you install the emegency push to exit system too for fire code? Also for fire code in your area, are you allowed to power fail CLOSED for the lock, or do you have to power fail to OPEN?...actually, nevermind on thqat, lol, the push bar meets that requirement where in an emergency users can push bar to open door leaving the mag lock fail CLOSED for security.

    • @MactelecomNetworks
      @MactelecomNetworks  Рік тому +1

      With any Unifi camera you can have privacy zones so it totally blocks out certain areas ( like computer screens). For Unifi access there is a push paddle on the door so you can always exit no matter what. We never install maglocks but if you do you most definitely need to have some fail safe set

    What do you think of the ai 360s vs the ai theta. Just did a install with 7 360s and maybe the theta would’ve looked cleaner. I know night vision is bad on the theta and without many reviews I didn’t want to risk it long term.

    • @MactelecomNetworks
      @MactelecomNetworks  Рік тому

      The view on both are great imo. I like with the theta you get two lenses one for 360 and one for wide angle if you want. In saying that I love the AI360 and we are adding one to this site as well. For the reception area the AI Theta just looked a lot better ( in this setting anyways)

    HDMI over Cat 6 is so much more reliable than HDMI extenders, once you break 50ft you either need HDMI over fiber or CAT6, you can alternatively inject 5v into HDMI over 50ft for the signal to reach, but not really an ideal solution.

      Hey there, I mainly use udms in my installs and they’re fine for home use and small office but are limited in capacity when it comes to offices around 10-20 people. Now it depends on who you ask but there are features ubiquiti doesn’t do that other firewalls do and if you need those features then you will be spending money anyways. %80 you could probably get away with a udm as it’s leagues above a off the shelf router or isp router but doesn’t offer everything that a custom IT install may want so it’ll depend on the businesses needs.

      People will complain about everything. Best way is to try them and see for yourself. I have none or very little issues with the UDM pros and the UDM SEs. I only install in small to midsize companies mind you

      I see a lot of PF Sense Firewalls with Ubiquiti switches. I’m assuming that would be more appropriate for larger offices with VPN needs?

    Doesn't the two switches need a link between them in case of failure of one switch or for quick transport if someone need to talk with something and can move from switch to switch.
    I'm simply just asking as I normally work with cisco

    Anyone know what that roundish blue and yellow cable management tool is? Never seen it, but I like it.

    Excellent work Cody!, I wanted to ask you about the size of the patch cords you used and where I can buy them, I find that it looks much better than using long patch cords and Rack Mount Cable Management Raceway Duct Panel with Cover Black. Congratulations on your work.

    why use 2x4s instead of just mounting the plywood direct to the wall, just curious?

    • @giggadan
      @giggadan Рік тому

      It depends on the install but in this case it may have been to avoid utilizes with the screws for the plywood or to have the 2x4s using metal screws instead of wood screws then using wood screws on the plywood to 2x4s.

      This wall was concreate that we placed on so the backboard would have went on fine, but then when we mount the rack the screws would hit the concreate and bring the backboard forward. That is why we frame it in. Also gives you space if you need to run cables behind it
