For many years in network career, I finally found out the art , therapy and mindfulness by doing peacefully cabling project on weekend. I decided to subscribe anyway even though Mattyams didn't want it! Thanks
Looks good! I was promoted to Surveillance Technician and I'm currently redoing a rack where the last technician of 12 years left it an absolute mess. I wish I could post a picture you guys would shit a brick!!!
wow you can really see the yellow wire gravity tension the top velcrow we can see starts above the 2 red bundles. then eventually with more wire weight it falls below the 2 red bundles.
"not that interesting" I beg to differ. Good video. I want to see wiring jobs in real-time. The use of different colored cables was a nice touch. Gives a lot of information on what the cables are for.
I imagine getting all the patch cables in the right place acording to the hardcopy printout, must be like playing a mega version of electronic battleship. weeeep! boom! "you sank my enterprize network!"
I have always wanted to do a video like this. When I punch down the wires in back of the rack I probably stop every 5-10 min for a min. You start going cross eyed staring at the colors. Fingers start to hurt. Legs get tired standing on a platform or ladder. During that min I glance at the phone, stretch, dance, do jumping jacks, throw a screwdriver at a box. This will go on for 4-6 hrs strait taking a break to only piss. Leave, eat, go back at it another 4 hrs. While I work the wires I yell at them for not doing what I want them to do. This time for the breaks I might shadow box, pop the bubble wrap, stare at the ceiling for a sec wondering how another trade did that shit up there. You go a little crazy for the couple days you stay in the 8x8 box by yourself critiquing the flaws in your OCD work only you see. Time lapse would make me look like a nutcase.
Robert Purvis you need a Bluetooth speaker at that rack buddy. play some music and let your fingers bleed. Just loose your self and become a robot. I like using my pullstring bucket for standing and sitting behind a rack. Plus some comfy shoes and red bull.
Low Voltage Dude yes sir. Some sugar free Monsters, Spotify playlist, and time warp the day. I got the rolling Ridged toolbox that is just the right height and width that I use to stand on sometimes. Unfortunately some Supers demand boots but I just splurged for some Redwings that are pretty damn comfortable when I have to wear them. Speaking of speaker you reminded me mine broke and I need a new one :)
Robert Purvis rocking some red wings nice.i got the composite toe irsh setters good for standing all day that's for sure. Is that a giant cut sheet in the video very nice. I love site specific documentation.
@@kjeldschouten-lebbing6260 if i'm adding drops latter down the line i always use a blank panel and insert keystones in. shielded cable, for sure the way to go. i can imagine it's easier on the body. i'm starting to get joint problems in the hands and elbow. keystones don't beat me up to much if i go at a normal pace and use a crimping tool. going to look into big panels for keystones. thanks for the suggestion.
Nice work, maybe yellow cable wiring i would do differently, maybe. And what a luxury to be able to have to long maintenance brake. Normally these need to do during production :)
Nice work, I see some comments about moving the switches in between the patch panels but personally I don’t agree that would have been the way to go, doing that means your more likely to patch a set area to one switch which in the event of failure brings an entire area or department down. The way you’ve done it means you can more easily spread ports across multiple switches (assuming they are not data ring stacked) allowing for better resilience. Nice work I’ve dine a few similar jobs!
You should velcro the spaghetti on the right, too. Even though it is in cable racking, it helps to have the pairs kept together as far as you can, would've given you enough space for yellow.
What was the patch color scheme? I think you are using orange from the firewall cluster to the switches. I assume you have some POE, Voip and other functions, but right now my guess is you have a patch color per switch? Is each physical switch a separate function? Assuming those are not stacked into one virtual switch.
Hi ,I got 2 routers on my house ,1 on my room and 1 on chitcken ,my 2nd one wont worked and my company resolved it and after, it was go so slow I got before 600mb/s dow and 300mb/s up ,after 0.50down and ,0.10up. help me .
These are all standard length patch cables, you do not crimp those yourself, it would take ages crimping and then testing all of them... That's why the cables go in loops in the cable tray, to dispose of the slack.
So just starting to watch....why do you keep looking at your phone? Are you using it/an app to help you with the job somehow? LOL or is it just playing music to cable by?...or are you just a real popular guy? ;-)
Finished...so the two things I find most notable about what you did was to spread out the devices in the rack, and you distributed the cables among all the patch panels rather than just the bottom three. The first I think is obvious why you might have. Care to comment on your thoughts going into it? I would appreciate seeing how an experienced hand thinks the details through going in. Tx. Looks real good by the way. How long did it take and did anyone bitch paying for the time cause 'it worked just fine already'?
Matt James I cannot imagine the mindset of someone setting up that original mess. Looking back if that metal rail on your right was the wall, without seeing more, I wonder if the rack was set up then slid into place. I'm sure I couldn't have worked in that narrow space. I would think heat must have played a part in any switch failure, but wouldn't some of the equipment be capable of monitoring that. Tx
@@lijie6431 His alternative will be using Wifi (forgetting that Wifi too has a patchpanel like this for the AP's and controllers...) or wiring cables directly from the wall into the switch by crimping RJ45's on solid core cables and then spending months trying to chase weird session dropouts and packetloss issues on the network... Or he wants to use short cables and just go patchpanel port 1 to switch port 1, forgetting there's multiple switches and patchpanels and that this would be a nightmare to trace if anything breaks or if a department wants to move, that is the old system from before we used VLANs to make that much easier to support.. This is the correct type of wiring, done pretty nice.

This is still cool to watch in 2018! Thanks!
for this amount of mostly? static wiring, i would decide to PP, SW, PP, SW...
shorter cables etc
WOW!! Very nice and clean job! It looks amazing!

In Flames' Only For The Weak came on when starting the video.. the intro was quite fitting
One day when i get my ccna, i hope to be doing something as awesome as you are. you're awesome mate
You don't need a CCNA to do this sort of grunt work. Just hard work and plenty of time to do it.
It's been 2 years. Where are you now?

Great work. How long did it take you to do all this?
Good example, thank you very much.
Cat emai tu dit va bo sao thong ho toi
why not place a switch between each 24 port patch and use 25cm cables.
Gee .25cm is pretty short, do they make cables that short.. like 1/8” !!
25 cm so 10 inch and yes they make them so you can cascade your switches between panels, but it sounds like that wasn’t an option here.
What's The Name Of Your Job?
looked awesome! Good work!
Cool video ! Did you crimp every cable yourself or how do you chose correct length for so many cables?
These are all standard length patch cables, you do not crimp those yourself, it would take ages crimping and then testing all of them...
That's why the cables go in loops in the cable tray, to dispose of the slack.
Must not have any VLANS just to unplug and plug back without labeling.

Nice work.. I wish i could afford the downtime to do that.. How long did u actually took?

wish i could work that fast
Great work, by the way
perfect
Very good job, I am CCNP and CCNP Voice :D
Poor planning leads to poor performance
Should have dropped each patch panel down a U and popped a switch in each gap and bought 15cm patch leads
not of the switches are managed, the cables would have overlapped and it would have looked even worse. cable trays works best in setups like these
So just starting to watch....why do you keep looking at your phone? Are you using it/an app to help you with the job somehow? LOL or is it just playing music to cable by?...or are you just a real popular guy? ;-)
LOL two very good reasons, but I've started to just give Google a genre and let it do it's own playlist. Works well. The other I have no solution for!

When will the world get away from this type of wiring. So out dated and messy.
What is the alternative?
@@lijie6431 His alternative will be using Wifi (forgetting that Wifi too has a patchpanel like this for the AP's and controllers...) or wiring cables directly from the wall into the switch by crimping RJ45's on solid core cables and then spending months trying to chase weird session dropouts and packetloss issues on the network...

This is the correct type of wiring, done pretty nice.
