I upgraded the Home Networking Panel and included some great new gear! 10Gb network switch with a Mikrotik CRS305-1G-4S+IN MM Fiber networking switch geni.us/goNi9C and a TP-LINK 16 port Gigabit TL-SG116 geni.us/tplink-16port-TL-SG116 for my Cat 6 Cable Matters 12-Port Patch Panel. The household IoT provided by our Smart Hub and our backup GL.inet AR-150 are also installed. This all is inside the Leviton 42" Structured Media Center 47605-42N with the hinged door 47605-42S for the primary cabinet. The Battery Backup UPS is in a 14" Leviton 47605-140 with Cable Matters 16 AWG 1' extension cables.

@BulldogsGaming-oc4ro Год назад

Looking super clean and ascetic! If you have cable service over the Coax like MoCA or ISP runs over the coax Please don't use those 8 way splitters people or any 3rd party MoCA splitter. If it's truly being used as antenna you're good. If it's a cable service those 8 ways take too much signal off and will screw your service up. -Cable Tech

@DigitalSpaceport Год назад

Yeah its all antenna. I ran cat6 and MM fiber in the house so no need to moca.

@Astro_War Год назад

I think the end result, visually at least, is pretty neat although those velcro attachments spoil the look a little. But I'm not a fan of these wall systems, I prefer a cabinet and rack mount components.

As a former cable technician it’s nice to see that you are utilizing 75ohm terminators. Question do you have a 7/16? Just seeing you tightening them down with those wire strippers at 10:26 was painful to watch. Great video otherwise!

@PWingert1966 Год назад

I use 3M command strips instead of Velcro. They hold extremely well and can be removed by pulling on their tab until the adhesive releases. I attach one side to the back of the device and the other side to the cabinet. then just press the two together and you're done. The adhesive takes a few minutes to set up, so I usually give the two parts a few minutes till I connect them together. They have a wide variety of attachment fixtures for all sorts of things like large, framed pictures, posters, coax wire and mops and brooms. They are a premium product and priced that way but give a clean appearance without the bondage strapped down look. No drilling and they are rated for a variety of weights up to about 10 lbs. or more. Velcro has an industrial version of the product as well. very stiff posts locking against each other. They are rated for up to 20 lbs. But the Velcro is permanently fixed to the surface. and not removable. You can find them in dollar stores, hardware stores, Walmart, and Amazon. There can be peel-away issues with drywall and painted surfaces if the weight is high. The command strips would have solve4d you are mounting issue on the 4-port Mikrotik switch with no effort..

@SirHackaL0t. Год назад

Love the layout. Just wondered why you didn’t put the dust caps on the fibre ends when they were unplugged. It helps keep them clean, especially having seen what you did to the first one after wrapping it around the frame. 😱

@DigitalSpaceport Год назад

I have piles of these from a server room cleanout and agree I should have used the caps, but I lost them long ago. Realistically if there was a problem I would just use the old to pull a new line in (its all in conduit) but all these strands are running w/o errors so 🤷 and finding those caps is a lost cause at this point

@PWingert1966 Год назад

I 3-D printed a circular fiber coil support frame at my local public library based on a fiber storage tray that I had found the manual and specs for. Built it in Tiny Cad with tabs that snapped on to split mounting posts with an edge on the bottom to lock them in place. They could rotate out to hold the fiber cable on a 4" circular frame with a cross member for mounting. Again, 3M command strips placed it in the cabinet and on the cross brace hold it nice and secure.

@DigitalSpaceport Год назад

do you happen to have that uploaded as an stl file?

@PWingert1966 Год назад

@@DigitalSpaceport I don't. The setup seemed specific to my application at the time. The design is easy enough. A two-inch diameter ring with a 2.5mm width. four holes for threaded inserts for the tabs. The tabs themselves are 5mm with a hole at one end to mount the bolts. To mount the ring, I put a couple of flanges with holes on the bottom of the ring for more bolts and I used more threaded inserts on the mounting surface. finding the threaded inserts in that size was the hard part. you could just thread the holes and put the bolts in directly. You could also just use screws in the flanges to secure it if you were mounting to wood for example. I just mimicked the fiber routing in a fibre storage cabinet I found drawings for online. Most of those companies also provide AutoCAD elements of their products you could use as a starting point.

@paulherman5198 Год назад

Not a bad little setup. I would have tried to trim the fiber up a bit. You might be able to 3D Print some more mounts and such for the box to clean it up nicely. Maybe route the coax cable through the left side so you dont have to bend as much. It looks like a great setup. Can't wait to see what you do with the servers

@HomeSysAdmin Год назад

Finally had time to watch haha, very nice setup!! I might have mounted the fiber switch rotated 180 so the connections come out the bottom though. I actually prefer zipties over velcro where they can be used, especially stiff RG6 runs. The velcro just doesn't hold tight enough. How is the antenna signal with the 1-to-8 splitter? I have a 1-to-4 but purposely bought one with an amp (Channel Master) as I was concerned about signal loss.

@DigitalSpaceport Год назад

I have a booster (same brand) on the antenna and the signal at all the drops is very good. I am not far from the towers and do have decent LoS so that helps for sure. Antenna is a cut piece of coax stripped and made into a 16" diameter loop.

@paulm7267 3 месяца назад

First of all, nicely done. Seriously, short of going to a 19” rack, that is one of the cleanest installs of that many pieces of equipment I have seen in a home. My only feedback is there are multiple reasons to straight up get rid of that 12-way punchdown block and to just terminate those 6 cables in RJ45 connections: (1) you don’t have hundreds of wires to punch down, so there is no an actual benefit (time, space, etc) to using punchdown with only 6 cables. Also, the 12-way punchdown is half unused and wasting space. Terminating in RJ45 is not hard. (2) removing the punchdown block frees up a lot of space by removing a big object out of the cabinet. (3) going with RJ45 terminations allows you to move the switch to either the place where the punchdown is located or even lower, providing you with more options for overall layout. (4) Removing connection/interfaces inherently increases reliability. Those 6 could go straight into the switch. (5) In the future, if you want to move to 5Gbe or 10GBe with those cables, the punchdown doesn’t have the necessary shielding that you get with the appropriate RJ45 connector. (6) People need to stop using punchdowns for essentially nostalgia purposes. It’s old tech, not shielded. I feel too many people use them because they see them in older installations or at work and are coping it without questioning if it is necessary.

For coax terminations you should check the stinger after you strip the boot. Sometimes the metal strands will loop around the stinger causing interference also for the fiber you should look into SM not MM as SM will do up to 100Gbps basically future proofing your network needs

@BLBlackDragon Год назад

Zip ties... Not a mistake, but very "old school." I stopped installing zip ties back over a decade ago. Velcro straps are a better option, as they can be quickly undone and redone several times, without having to throw away and get new. About the only thing I would have done different, is to get a power strip whose plug oriented correctly, so you didn't need a whole lot of extra cable from the extenders. I do have to say, you have a very organized setup. I'm somewhat envious. I have a fairly crowded Leviton 32"

@DigitalSpaceport Год назад

@ryderholland Год назад

Per code, its not rated to be in a wall at all, the “correct” way to do this would be to have the 120v all externally mounted, or have the ups on the floor or a shelf and have to ups outlet go into an in wall rated 120v inlet that is connected to romex and then terminated at an outlet inside the inclosure. That being said as long as the ups has airflow and doesn’t overheat this setup will likely be fine.

Even for home use! 1) standard 2) easier to work with, easier to troubleshoot 3) more options available, no vendor lock-in 4) more hardware options, rack mounted router, rack mounted switches, etc. 5) more expandability 6) Ethernet, fibre, and Coax patch panels (though I guess you could just mount a Coax splitter to a blank panel by drilling a few holes or 3D printing one. Etc. Etc. Yes, these look nicer, but just are not properly functional. That SmartThingsIoT hub ideally should be placed much closer to your Z[ed]-wave/Zigbee devices for more reliable wireless signal, at least you knew enough to connect it to Ethernet and not WiFi! (I wish more smart devices like smart switches (anything that are stationary really) would use PoE, MoCA, or Powerline networking instead of wireless (wired is ALWAY superior to wireless whenever mobility is not needed and practical).

Well crap, was about to purchase 8 more 20TiB SATA drives from you but you are out of stock 😭 I am starting to wonder if this is a plot by you against me so I will not catch you.

I did go back and trim this up with some nippers (based on the overwhelming feedback to do so) and tips are not protruding any longer.

10Gbit fiber for home ?? WTF !??

@BigWill3855 Год назад

Getting pretty common now.

@scotmaciver Год назад

lol that's what I came to ask. 1 gig is overkill for 99.9999% of folks, much less 10.

@@scotmaciver Does this meen I have to tear down my 40Gpbs setup?

@WillOnSomething Год назад

It's becoming more common, even if residential subscribers aren't currently getting full 10Gbit's provisioned on their plan. It's more of future proofing when you want/need higher speeds later. Comcast has been using 10gig fiber equipment for it's "gigabit pro" service (fiber based service thats different from their trad cable offerings) for a while now, and residential customers only had 2 gigs of the circuit, and apparently now they've started upgrading customers over to 4Gbit tiers

@DigitalSpaceport Год назад

I wonder how you will feel when the 40Gbit video is out... JK lol? But seriously I have been running 10Gbit for 6 or so years and love it connected to my unraid server with a super fast NVME storage array for files I access often.

I hope that panel isn’t metal because if you’re putting anything that that uses wireless communications inside, you have absolutely absolutely no clue what you’re doing
