Hi all,
Driving myself slightly insane with the possibilities over network equipment location. In terms of cable running none is signficantly better/worse than the other so I'm looking for advice on what others would do in my situation, the options are:
Loft
Thanks in advance
Driving myself slightly insane with the possibilities over network equipment location. In terms of cable running none is signficantly better/worse than the other so I'm looking for advice on what others would do in my situation, the options are:
Loft
- Pros - out of the way, easy to run cables up there
- Cons - temperature variance, no power for switch
- Pros - easily accessible, would fit nicely as electrics, alarm etc already terminate here
- Cons - not insulated so temperature variance (esp. when the door is up)
- Pros - insulated, north facing so relatively cool, accessible
- Cons - worried about heat buildup in the confined space as there is currently no ventilation and my server will be in there.
Thanks in advance
