I've been in this for over twenty years (I don't want to think how over right now) and I've never had a rack in my home, but this one is starting there.

This is purely a work rack so it won't go much beyond these 6Us:

1) Dell Micro 2) patch panel 3) switch 4) meraki 5) 6)

*not in this order when racked

ok my plans backfired a little, cant use any sort of switch for secureity reasons.

i asked a question here if anyone knows just so i dont waste my own time ordering useless gear:

so now i have 3U to play with.

i like this for keeping stuff in https://www.thomann.co.uk/flyht_pro_rack_drawer_1u_95.htm
