WAS
Driven
As some of you know, on top of owning a detailing business, I also own an IS / IT business, where we design web pages, build and support computer networks, etc.
Recently we did a network re-design at a local company that is a new client of ours. Whoever installed the original network did a very poor job, you can really tell that they cut corners to save time (and probably still billed the same man-hours as if it were done properly).
Anyways, here's some pics:
The original network, untouched by us.
What a clutter.
Our new network rack going in.
There's a lot of cabling to organize.
Begining to organize the rack.
Wire ties are our friends !
This was a temperature reading of the network switch. The area where the network equipment was installed is right next to a large window, and had no ventilation of any kind.
Temperature reading of the SonicWall.
I had the client install an a/c vent above the new network rack. After adjusting the fins on the vent to direct air where I wanted it, here's the result of another temperature reading of the network switch. MUCH more acceptable.
And another reading of the SonicWall.
Top 2 shelves completely finished.
Bottom shelf complete.
A peek of the whole thing.
There's still a lot of bundled up cabling by the floor, but at least now it's neat and organized.
Network admin jacks and KVM switch.
