Well - i'm quitting my job in ~2 weeks here so i thought i'd wrap up this small network disaster. It's OK but could have a lot better job - i just wanted to get all of the cables somewhat organized and the equipment enclosed.

Where did you pick up the enclosure from?

You know, i swear i ordered it through CDW but i'm not sure. I ordered it around December 05' (year end budget burning) and didn't get around to installing it for a while.
 
Would it be possible to include further information such as manufacture and model numbers on the equipment within the wallmounted enclosure?

Well, I was actually inquiring as to the actual networking hardware contained within the wallmounted enclosure, rather then the enclosure itself. Though I was interested in the details concerning the enclosure, as well...

Linksys EtherFast 4124 - switch - 24 ports ( i didn't buy this - and wouldn't recommend this for the cabinet)

The small linksys hub is nothing special, the two white boxes are Symbol Power Over Ethernet (POE) modules for an 802.11 FH network.

The router on the bottom is a Cisco 1722 w/ DSL WIC.
