Netbox Cabling

[@hungariannerd8445]

Hey Jeremy! Huge fan! I saw that twitter post where you made a comment about women - it was taken out of context and people trying to make you look bad on LinkedIn. I can see you said it for pure good intentions, and it has unfortunately been taken the wrong way by the internet. I hope this doesnt plague your name, and I pray it doesnt create trouble in your life because youre a really great instructor!

Just a big TIP. Normal a patch panel has only one Rear Port cable. A thick cable with all 24 fibre within it. This thick cable goes then to another panel in another room. You do not see the 24 fibre cable. So do not make 24 Rear port, but make 1 read port with 24 position. Then you only need to connect 1 Rear Port cable to remote Rear port cable. This way you save a lot of time and make stuff more simple. PS this works best if port 1 are connected to port 1 on remote side, 2 to 2, 3 to 3 etc.

While this might be the case in your situation, I've only seen this for fibre legacy voice. e.g. an MDF. You won't see this for CAT5e/6 which is what Jeremy was getting at.

Hi Jeremy, is there a discount code for the course that is still valid for us to use?

[@dionrowney]

Is there a shortcut to connect rear ports on 1 panel to rear ports on another panel?

[@timace1]

I'm sure you've already done this by now, but for anyone else with this question down the track, Attach one between the two patch panels, export that (from connections > cables), use the exported csv as a template, add the remainder and import it.

What's the name of the app you use to draw? I love it and I think I can use it for my videos ;) Netbox is awesome, I just need to learn more :D especially how to deal with Supermicro servers where you have 4 machines in a 2U box

I know I'm 2 years late, but this is covered by parent/child devices, similar to blade servers.
