    it is super clean but if you wanted it to look nicer sneaking 1-2U of horizontal wire management that is not very proud would hide a ton of the wire if thats the look you were interested in. sometimes the small loops like that look and work nice aesthetically also, beautiful design well done, and awesome showing people how

  2. @SloppyMechanics

    i like to use TPlink omada access points for wireless POE

  3. @Madoshat

    Hello my friend, good job, you are big "هطف" in this world
    thank you

    Nice rack!

  5. @chris-kf3hj

    every IT technicians nightmare is those damn rack nuts. Fuck those things lmao

  6. @chris-kf3hj

    September 25, 2024 at 6:24 pm

    Ubiquiti UniFi AP

  7. @JohnSeabourn

    September 25, 2024 at 6:24 pm

    You should take the time to change out all of your 5e for 6a. That suppers speeds up to 10Gb to give you a more future proof setup.

    You should also look into utilizing the coax in your house to hardwire your rooms via MoCA adapters. There are some great ones that can push speeds up to 2.5Gbps. I’ve used these and they work great.

  8. @rvarnier

    September 25, 2024 at 6:24 pm

    Try TP-Link DECO just for small places/small home – up to 2 bedrooms apartment. Omada for a bigger house with garage and yard, but you'll need a POE switch to power your wi-fi devices and probably if you want to exchange your cameras in the future, you can use POE to power them.
    Considering the CAT5E cables, try to replace them at least on your rack, connecting your devices such as NAS and e-security stuff on your switch with a good CAT6E or even 7… Between your off-rack devices is just ok, especially if you not using multi gigabyte devices…

  9. @cyberworld6469

    September 25, 2024 at 6:24 pm

    Unifi all the way for you networking needs!

  10. @pooh25800

    September 25, 2024 at 6:24 pm

    If looking for a wifi replacement, I would consider using access points (APs). You can pick up unifi APs for ~$100 and they will make use of your POE switch. Nice job on the rack and +1 for the rack studs.

  11. @larskbragdon

    September 25, 2024 at 6:24 pm

    Unifi for Wi-fi. All of their units mesh. Just use a POE adapter without the lan side plugged in after it's adopted and you are all set. You can also run the controller under linux in a VM. Check out the install script by Glenn R. Makes it super easy to update. Either that or get a cloud key.

  12. @minideluxe3942

    September 25, 2024 at 6:24 pm

    Tp-link mesh wifi is the best. I use it for some years and no issues at all.

  13. @georgehorsey

    September 25, 2024 at 6:24 pm

    Great build! I'd recommend NOT using pass through (pass-thru) RJ45 connectors especially with PoE they can void your warrenty.

    I like the 2 piece style RJ45 connectors the loading bar keeps the strands organized but doesn't leave copper ends exposed.

  14. @samstechnologyarticles

    September 25, 2024 at 6:24 pm

    USE UNIFY

  15. @ArthurIVA

    September 25, 2024 at 6:24 pm

    Rather than going with another mesh only system, I would personally recommend TP-Link Omada. They have firewalls, switches, and access points that are all prosumer/SMB grade that can either be configured and managed independently, or setup with a software/hardware SDN controller. As a bonus the equipment is all very nice looking and I cannot overstate how fantastic built in Wireguard is since having set that up with all of my devices.

  16. @bhupenderrohilla1994

    September 25, 2024 at 6:24 pm

    Hey Man, pls suggest any second hand server. Want to build my openstack cloud lab there.

  17. @Pugsley1

    September 25, 2024 at 6:24 pm

    Unifi I love it

  18. @nickm6443

    September 25, 2024 at 6:24 pm

    2 issues i see (av guy that does smart homes from pre-wiring to programming) patch panels are horrible, you're adding 4 more additional points of failure that are honestly very annoying to trouble shoot, never use pass through RJ45s i have seen dead switches and dead ports because of this

  19. @sebastianusami

    September 25, 2024 at 6:24 pm

    traditional cagenuts are the only way to go.

  20. @phildelafunk

    September 25, 2024 at 6:24 pm

    Ubiquiti! 😉

  21. @JohnnyLeuthard

    September 25, 2024 at 6:24 pm

    ve been wanting to do this for a while now. I have very limited space and don;t have a spot to wall mount anything so I'd probably get one that's on wheels. I just want to organize. I haven't done much for IOT devices just because I don't want a pile of hubs and switches sitting behind the TV or something. I just haven't committed to the project yet. But it's a great idea. Having everything in one spots a lot cleaner and convenient.

  22. @Beu8791

    September 25, 2024 at 6:24 pm

    Awesome tutorial for newbies like me! Keep it up 🇦🇺👍

  23. @mikaelingelin5709

    September 25, 2024 at 6:24 pm

    Good replacement for your wifi…go with Unifi for everything from cameras to router and switches. Its the perfect ecosystem, I have been using it for years and will never go back to anything else.

  24. @IPC0101

    September 25, 2024 at 6:24 pm

    Thanks for a very comprehensive list of components although the rack looks expensive

  25. @tatedehaanmusic3076

    September 25, 2024 at 6:24 pm

    If you want to have ethernet ports throughout the house but don't want to run new wire, I'd strongly recommend looking into MoCA. It's an awesome tool that uses the existing house coax lines and converts them to ethernet. Then of course you can have switches in each room for more ports and you can have wired backhaul on your mesh system.

  26. @charlesdean03

    September 25, 2024 at 6:24 pm

    This is not a smart rack and dude you already know that your video is trash so you put a disclaimer "don't be mean". Why not make a proper race and I am not going to talk about your selection of Ethernet cable cause someone already called you out on it.

  27. @carllorenzen4533

    September 25, 2024 at 6:24 pm

    I have a ? what are you gonna do when you get more cabels for your poe switch, are you gonna buy a rack panel more or just use the poe

  28. @haddiejonesy

    September 25, 2024 at 6:24 pm

    Nice work! Cable management is about getting the right lengths. As for cage nuts, there is a tool. Once you get used to it, its quite easy. Also, try to keep your power on one side and data on another. After you wire a few networks it get easy. Also, I always run plenum grade cable; while not required in the home, I still use it. Structured cabling habits die hard.

  29. @pennakira

    September 25, 2024 at 6:24 pm

    Thank you for the video, check out MikroTik router and AP

  30. @CraigNiesenPhotography

    September 25, 2024 at 6:24 pm

    Take a look at Patchbox for clean and straightforward patch cable management.

  31. @boardsblades

    September 25, 2024 at 6:24 pm

    You should have a backer board, not 2x4s. It's a cleaner look and also functions as a firebreak in many cases.

  32. @brinkum948

    September 25, 2024 at 6:24 pm

    Wow! You ppl in the private sector are really fighting a battle. I work in server room sector since 16 yrs where costs are just costs. I wouldn't for a second try to set up my own private even home server idea. There's no point.

  33. @TotalHomeControl

    September 25, 2024 at 6:24 pm

    I love Netgear Nighthawk mesh systems.

  34. @davidshonk9556

    September 25, 2024 at 6:24 pm

    Good job with the video. Thanks for sharing. if you haven't gotten a new mesh wifi system, I'd recommend considering an Orbi Mesh system. They're great and are rock solid.

  35. @AAPSG

    September 25, 2024 at 6:24 pm

    Get rid of that cat 5e CCA, junk cake, copper and aluminum don't expand and contract at same rate, get 6a or 7, better cable, better shielding

  36. @PoeLemic

    September 25, 2024 at 6:24 pm

    Thanks for showing us what is possible. I've been in process of building a closet rack for good while, but Life's been getting in the way. Yet, you remind me to get back to that Task. Thanks.

  37. @nonyadamnbizniz8754

    What scandal was eufy in???

  38. @hazardhanson

    September 25, 2024 at 6:24 pm

    What do people at home actually plug into 24 port switch 😅.

  39. @RichardM333

    September 25, 2024 at 6:24 pm

    If you need to support a rack while attaching it to the wall, use one or two cabinet jacks. They come in a variety of configurations.

  40. @RichardM333

    September 25, 2024 at 6:24 pm

    You have a professional speaking voice that's easy on the ears. I'm a subscriber!

  41. @mrgriggs1987

    September 25, 2024 at 6:24 pm

    I think a good mesh wifi replacement would be with ubiquity and unify products. Also offer great surveillance cameras with POE if you’re looking to expand.

  42. @alst4817

    September 25, 2024 at 6:24 pm

    Phwoar, what a rack!

  43. @eg7990

    i need something like that i just dont know where to start lol

  44. @eg7990

    clean

  45. @JasonLavarias

    BRAVO! Very well done video and information! Thank you for sharing! Looking forward to more of your work.

  46. @ikkuranus

    September 25, 2024 at 6:24 pm

    (TP)-link for the bunghole and not your network

  47. @AlexValliMusic

    September 25, 2024 at 6:24 pm

    Since you have TP Link switches, the TP Link routers are nice as well for a mesh system, Can get Wi-Fi 7 for future proofing.

  48. @stampeder1686

    September 25, 2024 at 6:24 pm

    Nice rack. First, LABEL YOUR PATCH PANEL. You will thank me down the road. Next, while it is a nice rack, if you are a serious home labber get a 44 inch deep cabinet. I have one and it is a dream for those deep servers and switches. Next, get a 44 open rack. You have no idea how hand this is. I have both these in my lab. I have a whole wall of stuff in our media room closet where the house stuff is. It's all structure wiring with a 36 inch Leviton panel in the wall between studs and another 48 inch by 48 inch painted plywood board on the other wall for all the stuff that won't fit in the Leviton box.
    Stop whining about installing RJ48 connectors. With the newer push through connectors they are a dream to install. It only takes a few minutes and you are quaranteed to have a good connection or you will have only yourself to blame.
    Another great thing that I recently bought is:
    https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08HDGBWGV?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title
    This is a dynamite POE tester. i wish I had bought one of these a long time ago. When you get into POE a little further this little gem will really save you ass……..Trust me.
    Great video. I subscribed a while ago and enjoy them. Cheers.
