Indeed it is. With 4 48 port modules. You can see before the two cooling fans are blocked by cables.

Our ISP is and has been Ventelo for the last couple of years, this time they delievered us 30Gbit/s internet over a OC768 link (hence the need for a CRS-1) We used a private ASN and borrowed IP-addresses from ripe (89.22.0.0/16)
Mostly for getting ASN statistics in our netflow data
Everything that happened on stage (talks, concerts etc) was multicasted for everyone to watch, we also had some tv-channels.
Actually we didnt run VSS due to the control-plane limitations. We have extensive use of ip helper-address (play LAN games between subnets hack). We tried this one year with VSS and spiked the CPU hard. However the VSS sups are sweet due to their built-in 10G ports.
Network wise the sponsors are our ISP (Ventelo) my employer (ATEA) and Cisco. I started planning the network about 3 months before the party. And we start building it 5 days before the participants arrive.
Small commercial Cisco made at TG10:

I was curious to know what games were played, and if you have specific data in regards to the bandwidth consumed by various multiplayer games played...

Those things are just awesome! 48 x 1000Mbps, or 48 x 100Mbps?

Yeah I was gonna say, there's like a $3,000 price difference. You can pick up the 100Mbps x 48 for pennies on the dollar. You can sell body parts to get the 1000Mbps x 48 modules.
Depending on how a partners deal goes through tomorrow I might end up with Dual 6509's with the same specs, SUP2, 16 x GBIC, 48 x 100Mbps, 16 x GigE, Dual 1300W PS. I'm also going to be moving my gear around inside of Colo4 to a new cabinet this weekend... FUN I'll take pics of the new setup and post that up. Mostly server related gear being moved/added.

Cabling routers, public switch and firewall

Hah. Like I could quit mid-project.

Single quad-core Xeon X3430 @ 2.4GHz
4GB RAM
2x 160GB SATA drives in RAID-1
iLO100 remote management
I really like these machines. They're snappy, the SmartStart software is a cinch to use and hassle-free.
My only gripe is that they don't come with cable management arms. Sliding them out of the rack for any kind of maintenance means either you've left three feet of slack hanging down the back of your cabinet (which will probably unplug as you slide it out anyways), or you unplug it to pull it out.
Guess I'll start looking at these servers instead..
I hate cable management arms. With a passion. I guess I'm use to if I have to work on a server it's getting shutdown anyways to be pulled back to a tech bench.archivalbackup

I have to disagree, I love the cable management arms on our HP DL385 G5s, they are a dream to be able to pull a server out from the middle of a stack and not have to worry about unplugging something else by mistake. I have done a lot of maintenance / upgrades all still in the rack.

Same here, I love being able to pull out our servers and do ram upgrades, addon cards, cpu swaps. pretty much anything can be done except maybe a motherboard.
Well you can drive 45 some minutes over to my place and deal with all of my cable management arm stuff. I've just never had good luck with them. Oh well. I'll have to learn soon enough
Some are good, some are total crap.
I have one for a HP server that is flimbsy and doesn't stay on, i have others that are top notch

Priceless.
And in fact, I agree with both of you. Some of my Dell arms sag and are total crap, while others are rock solid.

Finally got some new shots, after the move to our new cab. Our previous colo provider managed to sell out, making life a little more fun.

Are those Load Balancers? At any rate, they look cool. That's worth $75 right there!
