Even More Things That Make Installing Cat6 Networks Better and Easier
In this followup video about the tools I use to install networks, I share new items from the toolbox. For all of us that run cat6, fiber, and ethernet of all kinds, there is a unique toolset for every person. I'm sharing mine over the course of a few videos, I would love to hear what you are using.
Items I shared in this video are linked here, if you use these it helps me out a bit, but don't feel like you have to - if you delete the URL and search it direct that's fine too :)

What is an IP Address? Network+ and CCNA Concepts
Просмотров 1,4 тыс.Месяц назад
In lesson 3 of our series, we are going to start learning about IP addresses. We are also going to do a quick hands on lab where we set up our own IP network and do some simple tests to get our feet wet. I discuss reserved ranges and how the mask separates the hosts from the network. There's plenty of road in front of us, so dive in with me!

    Unifi USW-FLEX is a managed PoE switch that does the same thing. There are a few other switches out there, too. For pulling fiber, there is a tool I picked up "fiber optic cable pulling eye kit" that has a piece of OM2 and a cable mesh. You put the ends of the fiber inside the mesh and wrap the OM2 around your cables. Tape it up and pull on the fish-eye. Very nice system. Very nice tools.

    • @tciproductions

      I had a flex in the past and it had issues with VLANs if I didn't have a way to match up with the customer's LAN...oftentimes I don't know the customer's set up so when I deploy the PoE switches I need them to pass all VLAN traffic unmodified so that WAPs and such "just work". I will take another look at the flex, its been a while for me. Good idea on the pulling eye, I have one and didn't think to include that!

      I usually label the PoE Injector and tell the end users to reset it if they think the small distro switch is acting up. At least nobody has to get on a ladder to perform that, a nice benefit of PoE :)

    Great tips, thank you. I've been looking into alternative tool cases and pouches. It's getting tiresome hauling a briefcase style toolcase with storage inlays around even though most of the time I only need a few of the tools and materials, depending on the job at hand. I'm considering a backpack, but I have yet to find one that's got enough space and the right amount of compartments and compartment sizes to keep things tidy and separated enough. I'm absolutely gonna get me one of those stools!

Though I used cat6a for my house, I'm kinda interested on the workflow and tools needed for fiber installation. The fiber cable seems to be cheaper but the tools looks expensive.

      @tciproductions 6 дней назад

      I'll put a vid together about this, I find the tools expensive and fussy, you need a lot of patience and you'll still have some bad ends now and then. The cables are cheap but you pay for it on the termination side. Highly recommend pre-termed when you can manage it.
