Are your server cabinets neat and tidy?

DOES YOUR SERVER CABINET LOOK LIKE THIS?

If so it’s probably time you clean your act up!

The server cabinet should be considered the backbone & foundation of your network – make sure it’s set up correctly and kept neat and tidy!

A nice clean server cabinet brings a whole host of benefits some of which are list below:

Faster fault diagnoses – engineers can find the cable they need quickly and easily to resolve faults.
Faster equipment installation – which may save both time and money
“Loop backs” and cabling issues are far less likely, which means less down time, fewer network faults and faster network operation
Maximise the room available in your cabinet
Better network security as sockets are not connected to the network when not necessary
It will allow you to make best use of your network switches as you can be sure all sockets used are connected to equipment

See how it should be done below:
