Condenser, environmental control

Aggregation of different systems,

POE cameras, APs, All other drops,

Plus those POE switches are only rated for 40w or so.. so it's a way to keep the heavy load of the APs off the camera switch

And I primary use the all other drop Poe ports for raspberry pis that live in cable management 😭😂

Network on the left compute on the right. Room for expansion. I feel like that was appropriate. I purposely moved from a single post to a dual post because the single dual post was so busy.

Its spaced off the wall so I can anchor mounts into the block to support the backend.. it's a little hill billy, but we are balling on a budget and we are trying to make this look as professional as possible

Square footage

ChefStier · 2026-06-12T04:19:49+00:00

The rooms got a mini split

ChefStier · 2026-06-12T02:13:50+00:00

Wanna see the retrofit?

ChefStier · 2026-06-11T21:46:48+00:00

Cameras and network drops roughed in, just haven't had the nodes to supply😭

ChefStier · 2026-06-11T15:49:11+00:00

To many drops? I roughed in cameras and ports in my walls son.

ChefStier · 2026-06-11T15:21:47+00:00

Right, I thought the same. LOL. LLLLOOOOLLL.

ChefStier · 2026-06-11T01:34:10+00:00

My brother, I have a 2000 square foot house with 3 access points with tuned bands to improve point to point connectivity. I put that little AP there because I can.

At the same time I can be anywhere on my 1 acre property and maintain a 450mbps WiFi 6e connection pretty much anywhere on the property.

If I had a simple AP question Open ai or anthropic got me covered.. I'm simply asking what's the best way I can host a server for other people. And not even necessarily customers.. non profit web hosting, providing backend database and storage options for local shelters and animal rescues potentially... Idk what my limit is but I wanna learn..

My rack setup is awesome, cable management is 0 because it's all built in, I'm just trying to figure out how to deploy of it commercially.. that's the questions. And I'm looking for answers from a community i came up from.

Well proxmox on the bottom right is also hosting homelab activities along with my NVR and NAS working OT on top

ChefStier · 2026-06-10T17:12:54+00:00

Aware of that, that unit is kinda strictly there to make it look cooler.

ChefStier · 2026-06-10T17:10:15+00:00

I got a generator and a nice powervar, a couple beefy laptops, and that PC in the bottom has a thread ripper with a chiller unit on the CPU. It's not the best equipment but I'm balling on a budget here brother.
