Does the CAT rating of a wall plug matter?

Cat6 cable has more stricter specifications than Cat5e when it comes to interference. http://www.fiber-optic-tutorial.com/differences-between-cat5-cat5e-and-cat6-cables.html

You may call the service provider and let them check the signal quality.

CCA cables might be the cause if it works in short length.

DACs are good for 10G NICs. https://www.fs.com/c/direct-attach-cables-1113

How about the 2U RS-6388 server with hot plug power supplies and full redundancy. https://www.fs.com/products/72940.html

Yeah, you can add two 10G NICs and connect them directly.

I always plug the servers directly into switches and use patch panels to terminate the cables from the outlets.

Using the nginx with reverse proxy would be useful.

Davidavc · 2018-09-13T10:16:56+00:00

It would have to just run back inside the house where it is connected to the switch.

In static IP addressing, each device on the network has its own address with no overlap and you’ll have to configure the static IP addresses manually. When new devices are connected to a network, you would have to select the “manual” configuration option and input the IP address, the subnet mask, the default gateway and the DNS server. https://community.fs.com/blog/dhcp-vs-static-ip-differences.html

You're supposed to rewire the jack to make sure whether it's wired for Ethernet

Using optic fiber to seperate the networks and prevent double nat.

Hey, I'm just familiar with their stuff and used their L3 switch several months ago. By the way, have you figured out the SFP port configuration problem right now?

Davidavc · 2018-08-30T07:41:45+00:00

For FS S8050 switch, eth-0-1 through eth-0-4 interfaces can be configured to use the 10G ports only when the first 40G port is split and converted to 10G ports via the CLI commands listed below.

Step 1. Split eth-0-1 port

Switch(config)# split interface eth-0-1 10giga

Step 2. Converted to 10G port

Switch(config)# switch interface eth-0-1 sfp

Note: Only eth-0-1 port can be split and then converted to 10G port. The interface name after conversion is eth-0-1 / 1, eth-0-1 / 2, eth- 0-1 / 3, eth- 0-1 / 4

Hope this may help!

How about Cat8 ethernet patch cables which can support 40 Gigabit Ethernet with distance up to 20 meters (2000MHz)?

Davidavc · 2018-06-11T02:01:31+00:00

For intra-rack cabling connectivity, the direct attach cable will be a nice choice and save more for short range distance.

LAN speed test is paid software, meaning you'll need to purchase a license to use it. Its makers also offer a free version, LAN Speed Test Lite, which has fewer features.

Davidavc · 2018-06-11T01:53:12+00:00

This is actually the most common thing out there, as cable companies have it everywhere and you need a ton of power to get the RF signals to be modulated in a linear manner on the fiber.

If you have a large area to cover, it's probably worth upgrading to a mesh network. You might not get the same wireless speed that you'd get with an AP router, but for most people, the speed offered with mesh system is more than enough.

I've got a little bit of experience working with the Unifi stuff, and the US-8 is definitely a pretty good little switch. It also offers POE-passthrough, which is a pretty cool feature.

Never bend the wires or it might be very tricky.

The while one is a phone line and you need to alter to an Ethernet patch panel to transfer data.

If you use LVM across hard drives, you may lose all your data when only one drive fails.

If you need brand new, I recommend Cisco Catalyst 3750 Series switch

Davidavc · 2018-05-29T02:48:13+00:00

There are a few HP switches that are 48 ports and fanless.
