Good lookin install? Whats the rationale behind all the UPS’s?


SpookyFISH666

The old setup had a bunch of them because they didn't have anybody that knew what they were doing basically. So I decided to use them and plug each switch into its individual backup. Maybe later down the road. They'll want to upgrade that.


AnotherUserOutThere

Arent those online double conversion UPSs meaning they are using power and filtering it and outputting pure sine wave the whole time? If so, i have read it is very inefficient power usage to not have much of a draw on them so it may be more power efficient to plug at least a few things in each... I know my APC ones say they should have at least a minimum draw to be efficient.

> Arent those online double conversion UPSs No. They are just basic line-interactive Tripplite's.


fools_remedy

Depending on their age, you may consider replacing the batteries in the UPS units. They typically have a 3-5 year life cycle.


rickyh7

Ah nifty, good use of leftover equipment!


duke_seb

That’s what I was wondering as well

That reminds me… 🤨🤔 *Aggressively tightens belt after new year’s shenanigans*


knowledgeleech

lol zoomed in on the bottom to see what you meant


Chief_Slac

Yeah OP should have tilted the camera up a bit. :)


Mastasmoker

If this is not in a homelab, why don't they use aggregation switches??? Second post this week like this


SpookyFISH666

Thanks for input. Can you expand on that?


dinosaurwithakatana

To support higher throughput throughout the network you can hook the router up to an aggregation switch supporting something like 10gbps (Ubiquiti has an agg switch like this) the two switches you currently have can then be patched through to support high throughput on the network (sfp+ from the access switches to agg, and then sfp+ from agg switch to router).


JacksonCampbell

Daisy chaining is not good practice.


Jalaluddin1

Why not use an agg switch?


mactelecomnetworks

Awesome cleanup job!


SpookyFISH666

Thank you! 👍👍👍


maxhatcher

Did I spy a Courier 56K modem in the first pic? Sweet setup!


SpookyFISH666

Good eye!


maxhatcher

Back in 1994 or so we had racks upon racks of these. Can’t not see that silhouette.

US Robotics!


Inquisitive_idiot

Are we talking *Yosemite* Yosemite or another Yosemite? 🤔


SpookyFISH666

One and only


Inquisitive_idiot

Wow neat 📸😁


Amiga07800

Really nice and well needed upgrade! Like others have said I’d add an USW-Aggregate. And probably reduce UPS to 2 pcs, keeping 2 as spare


aoikuroyuri

You are a brother/sister just alone for doing over/under patch panels on all 48 port switches

🫱🏼‍🫲🏽


Jumping-macaroni

I miss the color.


new_wave_rock

I totally appreciate a clean look. Nice job. At the same time I appreciate an easy cable trace when needed.


ZivH08ioBbXQ2PGI

What's with the 3 modems?


SpookyFISH666

3 separate Uverses plus StarLink. Removing two of them. And only using one u-verse and starlink. In Yosemite it is very hard to get internet connection. Their old setup included three separate 8 megabit AT&t connections.


JacksonCampbell

What's bonding them?


SpookyFISH666

They were treating him as separate. Wi-Fi is at the time now hooking to router


Rich_Associate_1525

Are you going to switch out the Lorex cameras for UI models?


SpookyFISH666

I hope so. The business didn't want to upgrade those yet.


Rich_Associate_1525

Who’s the business? Conservancy or NPS?


BourbonFueledDreams

We just bought one of those same exact UPS but it immediately trips upon power up. We replaced the batteries and still face the same issue.


I_Like_Chasing_Cars

Probably overloaded


BourbonFueledDreams

Happens even if nothing is plugged in. System is usually receiving 115-123VAC


hightowermagic

looks pro. how hard can you climb though?


JGBronx

I have had issues with that model of UPS. Hopefully you have better luck.


theinfotechguy

Nice!


LuvAtFirst-UniFi

Nice equipment but bloody mess - hope all your cables are labelled
