20 jack network

UPDATE 1/5/12: This 20 jack has morphed into a 44 jack network overnight. Check out the update post HERE


UPDATE 1/1/12: This customer has added more than the 24 jacks that the 2 12 port panels are capable of terminating. At first I just added several surface mount jacks to add capacity. However the network has become rather messy, and I am going to be installing several more jacks in the coming days. The 2 - 12 port panels and extra jacks at the network closet are going to be replaced with a 48 port patch panel that should provide enough ports for the new and existing jacks, as well as some availability for even further additions and expansion of the network. 

4 more runs need to be installed, as well as at least 2 door phones.

snaking thru brick

[EDIT: Wiring diagram to connect PAP2 to RC2a and E20B doorphone can be found HERE this diagram is the same exact method as to how to wire the door phone shown in the images on this page as well]

This is part of one of the larger jobs already posted on this site.

The customer wanted the door bell installed on the front of the brick, I tried to talk them into putting the door bell in the doorway which would have made the job easier, but they insisted in a specific location for the door phone. Unfortunately the location where they wanted the door phone installed was directly on the other side of a support column of which I did not have a long enough bit to get thru (and potentially there was steel behind the masonry)

The customer suggested that I channel out the concrete between the bricks to run the wires, but I felt that would have left the job sloppy, and would have actually been more work than to come up with this solution.  About 2 feet to the right of where the door phone was to be installed the wall was thin enough do drill thru the masonry, So I had to channel thru the concrete to get the wire to where it needed to be.

Drilled hole across brick towards where wire exits for channel. 

3x Cat 5 wires (for 3 door phones) run thru channel behind brick.

Hole on right is where wire enters building, to left is where wire exist thru channel behind brick.

Another angle of the channel for door phone wiring. 

I do not have an image of the door phone installed. If I pass by this location again, I will take an image of the installed door phone and add it to this post.

EDIT Here it is, finally. The door bell mounted by the front door.

very small 6 jack network

Now that the site that was stealing my content is taken care of, I can get back to doing updates.

This is a job that was completed several months ago. It is a small network consisting of only 6 jacks, so in place of a patch panel I installed a face plate with 6 jacks.

The hosting company of the site that was mirroring content from this site with out authorization has been taken down by their hosting company.

I had only wanted for my content to be removed from their site, but it appears that their entire site has been removed from the internet completely.

UPDATE The site is back up,  but fortunately without my content posted. Check I recommend that you check the site for your content.

UPDATE These content trolls are back at it, and they refuse to take my content down and so far I have not found a government agency willing to reply back to my copyright claims against them, but I will continue to pursue them.
