alissathis is a relaxing post
Jason Weatherly@dnsprincess That is absolute zen...in related news, I'm not looking under my desk at my own person cable management skills...

:EA DATA. SF:@dnsprincess it's so beautiful it almost brings a tear to my eye.
Lynn Grant@dnsprincess I am always a bit envious of people who have enough cable in different colors to do this. I color code my patch cords, but I don't have enough cabling in my house to justify several 500-foot spools of Cat6.
Of course, I'm not that neat, either, so although I have great respect for installations like this and love looking at them, I would have difficulty pulling one off myself.
Dan@lynngrant @dnsprincess I agree while my volenteer activities cable management is better than many comercial setups it's not this neat and color coding is done by function/vlan so trunks are a different colour to computer patches to phone patches to cctv connections etc
Mike Pirnat@dnsprincess Outstanding alt text, bravo. 
RAK@mpirnat: I was just thinking that as well.
๐ณ๐ฑ๐ช๐บJeroen๐บ๐ฆ๐บ๐ฆ๐บ๐ฆ๐บ๐ฆ@dnsprincess it also makes me feel inferior, given the tangle made of 5 cables I know exists under my desk.
pgnx@dnsprincess Very, thank you ๐คซ๐
Oliver Schรถnrock@dnsprincess Beautiful
is this "servers" (as per description) of some kind of comms patch cabinet?
Gabor Heja@oschonrock @dnsprincess Looks like patch panels, see the bottom rows where the outer jackets are removed, and twisted pairs are visible.
@gheja @dnsprincess yes, exactly
mika@dnsprincess No! Thatโs not ok, that is some matrix shit. Humans would never do that!
GayDeceiver@dnsprincess Such beauty.
Anthony Collette @dnsprincess Oh wow. That is *SO* neat and organized!

This is beautiful.
I don't want to be the one to fix a problem in the chaos below

"Yeah, cable management."

geewhiz@dnsprincess I personally donโt care for this because to does not seem extendable. Eventually there is going to be a pile of contractor cobwebs on this.

@dnsprincess Why a loop ? BECAUSE !

@cgx @dnsprincess In case anyone reading is actually wondering, itโs for slack, in case a patch panel needs to be shifted.

Neatness counts.
Neatness counts.
MrC@dnsprincess Reminds me of when I worked for a CLEC. The old-school Bell guys we had hired to run the 5ESS switch would follow us young IT kids around and wax-string tie all our cables. It was the cleanest, nicest set of server racks I've had, before or since.
Chris WilliamsWhen I worked as a contractor at Lucent documenting their last 5ESS in the late '90s, most of my fellow contractors were old "wire and plier" guys.
I felt bad for them, because I knew that all of that was going to be replaced with IP telephony.
@gaffa @dnsprincess I think we put 5 or 6 5E switches into production from 1999 to 2003. They were 5ESS-2000 VCDX and it always amused me that they had a Sun Sparc system running 3B20 emulation in order to be compatible.
Mikko Lipasti@dnsprincess just imagine being a bit, cruising those smooth curves, what fun!

Mike Fraser@dnsprincess I'm going to go cabling snob on this. It is a beautiful job, but I don't like the use of plastic zaps, especially bundling trunks with them. They tend to pinch,

imbou@dnsprincess that is the sexiest thing I have ever seen! ๐๐

@dnsprincess It's great until one of the cables fails (admittedly rare). More commonly, someone needs to replace a switch or add ports.

Zorin =^o.o^=@dnsprincess Relaxing right up until you have to make a change. :)
alett@dnsprincess data wave! How cool
joene ๐ด@dnsprincess For me this is not so relaxing, because ...
1. How did they do it? Patched first all cables and from there collecting all cables and carefully join them using tie-ribs?
2. If something needs to be re-patched, how? Cut the tie-ribs with the change to damage the cables? I'm getting nervous only by the thought.
Peter Faur@dnsprincess Bundling must be saving them a ton of money.
Jonathan ๐ณ๏ธโ๐๐ณ๏ธโโง๏ธ๐จ๐ฆ๐ฒ๐ฝ@peterfaur @dnsprincess I saved 15% just by looking at this picture.

If you find that relaxing you should see the work my brothers and sisters in #ibew do on a daily basis.
