Yeah she's auto crossed, so just using straight throughs for patching. I actually hand made all those small patch leads. Wanted them in a custom length :oops:

Its a gig network with a 1.5 Meg ADSL 2 internetz.

I transfered 15 movies off one pc on the network this morning to another & it took 6 minutes 8O

Gonna play C&C3 across it tonight 8)

That some pretty impressive gear you have there. Ever considered a trade in electronic comms.

OK, how much of that equipment did you "borrow" from work, or did you add it to the last project budget :hey:

Goes up to 16Mb, but the reality is in Australia that the best actual dsl speed you get over copper is about 1.5Mb.

All equipment is 'on loan' from work :lol:

I love the fact that you're using a 24 port switch as a shelf.

the only thing nerdier than that setup is the fact you felt the need to post about it on the internet showing all your e-friends
