That’s pretty slick! Would you mind sharing the ark? I have a need for something like this

How cool! After spending too much on my (beginners) full sized network rack, there's something so beautiful about the efficiency of a setup like yours!

All the cooler that you were able to print out your own :D

Thanks!

I would have liked to go full rack approach, but just couldn't justify it, (yet lol). But this serves me well!

I tried to build out a system like this a while back and ended up giving up after a ton of prototypes. Kudos for getting it all figured out.

Thanks!

It was a pain with so many push fit joints, a lot of scrap parts! But that's half the fun :)

Looks cool. Are they all switches? Why do you have 5 of them?

[–] ilovecheese@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Thanks!

From the bottom up: cable modem, patch panel, VLAN switch, router, patch panel, dumb switch at the top.
