LAN In A Box - Part 10, The Cable Finale (Almost)

The last of the cabling took two sessions and actually went pretty quickly. So much so I didn't take that many pictures because it didn't seem interesting enough. 

Here's some patched cables.


Here are all of the patched cables.


There was one minor flaw I noticed really a little late in the day. The new patch panel has it's holes at the outer edge of the U. The old on didn't and had it's mounting holes in the center of the U. As a result, next time the sides pieces are out they'll have to be redrilled for the new panel, but fortunately it's hardly impossibly difficult to do.


This was mean't to be the last update before the first sue of LIAB in the wild, but the PSU died while trying to install the OS so delayed everything, the network side will be ready, but the server itself is probably going to be done at the event.
