If they don't bite, offer them the rack (23" CPI) as well. The fiber stuff works and looks /so/ much better in a rack. When I was in the planning/building stage of my current datacenter, I was fortunate enough to have a nice big wall for the telco. Verizon actually has a 23" rack, an 8' x 8' backboard (of which, I reserved a portion for my own stuff). From the backboard, I have a 12" cable ladder that runs from the telco wall all the way to my equipment racks. Their 23" rack has a short piece bridging the gap from the telco rack to the ladder. Somewhere around here, I have a diagram and parts list of what I put together. If interested, reply off list and I'll dig around for it. -- Troy Settle Pulaski Networks 540.994.4254 They told me to think out of the box, but I tripped over it, now I own my own company. ** -----Original Message----- ** From: owner-freebsd-isp@FreeBSD.ORG ** [mailto:owner-freebsd-isp@FreeBSD.ORG]On Behalf Of Jan Knepper ** Sent: Thursday, January 11, 2001 5:26 PM ** To: freebsd-isp@freebsd.org ** Subject: T1/DS1 ** ** ** Hi, ** ** I ordered a T1 quite a while ago and now Verizon seems to come around ** the corner and finally install the connection, however... ** ** I need a 4 ft square panel on the wall so they can mount a ** couple of things: ** - Fiber Cable Termination ** - Soneplex Equip ** - Smart Jack Shelf ** - Rectifier Cabinet ** - Battery Cabinet ** ** Also their instruction paper says: "Requirements for DS-1 ** Service via Fiber" ** ** Since I don't have that much experience I am beginning to wonder what is ** going on. ** ** Can any of you shed any light? ** ** Thanks! ** Jan ** ** ** ** To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org ** with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message ** ** To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
