Dude, you rock with that portable AC unit in there. When you have to have one of those to run all your equipment, you've got a lot of power in the room. So now, what unit is that, where did you get and what did you pay? I'm looking to buy one because my room just can't handle it anymore.

Very interesting. Was that a D-Link or Netgear? My routers get very hot, especially since they are stacked. I'm still working on a good device to cool them down. I have a Netgear router I would like to open up and basically copy your idea, because I know if I can cool it down, it will probably work again. But I can't seem to get the cover off.

It's a netgear wireless G at with that whole "108Mbps" thing (forget the model number). The same design as basically every other netgear router before it. Anyway there are 4 screws that a visable on the bottom. Take them out and then lift off the top of the device. The sides should simply fall off

you could probably get an SKB case or similar at a music store to put the smaller stuff in..the servers might be too deep i think. or you could build one from plywood...
But here's mine...
Specs:
Ortronics 48 port patch panel
Siemon cable organizer
Dell Powerconnect 2016 switch
1U vent panel
1U custom connector panel
2U blank panel
Cisco 2501 router
1U vent panel
2U vent panel
2-2U blank panels
(you cant see the rest...)
1U blank panel
Dell Dimension L600r on a shelf
then a shelf on the bottom.

The servers are too deep for those portable racks and they rare too heavy for plywood! I'm going to get a half rack off ebay and some rails when I stop being broke.

are you saying those 3 servers are too heavy for plywood? Check back a few pages in this thread and you will see my custom plywood cabinet(then again it is 4 post inside of the plywood
). Its around 36U and completely full.....If I were you I would get some rails from ebay, and then attach them to plywood.... my buddy did this and it worked out great for him. I think it cost him 100 bucks total for a 32U custom cabinet.
Jeff,
Nice stuff brother, now you just gotta get some more cisco gear

To keep it OT...looks pretty good considering the space you had...are the blue bundles station or patch cables? I like the JCU colors for the jacks too.

Sacred, would you mind sharing where you find that rack? I'm trying to find something similar for my company but I have no idea what to search for. I know it is pretty popular around here too so it must be easy to find...
Thanks!
