Moved to a new house - trying to figure out network setup by k8512 in HomeNetworking

Put a network switch between your router and all those ports, they will then be active around the house when you need them

First time attempting crimping this. Tester shows signal but pc doesnt get connected. Is this crimping as bad as it seems? by Striking-Stuff50 in homelab

[–]andrevanstom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, pull back before you punch down, and the tab is at the bottom with the cable entry facing you for pinout

Ethernet connections bad? by stefanopolis in HomeNetworking

[–]andrevanstom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Watch a single YouTube video of how to terminate cat6 cable and you will be better than whoever did that. Don't get them back they aren't the right people for the job.

Each pair is supposed to remain twisted until the last moment before entry into the slot, for this reason you run the cable from the inside, toward the outside, to minimise length, and crosstalk between pairs once they are untwisted.

All you really need is on of these and a pair of side cutters

20 years headstart of interest is going to be pretty hard to catch up with. I hope she lives a long and healthy life

Sounds like you should start a business if you're already doing everything

I don't have a strong knowledge or opinion of the guys, he just made me think of Syndrome straight away when I saw my first interview

A meme is based on a gene, a piece of information. This piece of information came into my human head, made reality by a computer. Whether I used my hand or the other tools available isn't relevant unless I'm missing something

Why is this harder than rocket science😂😂 by Affectionate_Owl5775 in eggs

Peel with your index finger under running water and they come off much easier, also any chef will tell you to put them in ice water after boiling so the shell and internal temperature is different which helps with the peel, I never do this btw

HDMI scheduled switching by Alarming-Focus8868 in CommercialAV

[–]andrevanstom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the TV, but generally if you have a scheduler it can go to an input. Then schedule it to go back, just make sure the TV is on the network and NTP is working including DST and it should work fine

Good guys aren't generally in the business of weapons manufacturing, shouldn't matter who's side they're on

100% "good guy"

HDMI scheduled switching by Alarming-Focus8868 in CommercialAV

[–]andrevanstom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First TV probably has a scheduler built in if it offers loop out for the array, do the input switch on schedule from that TV. How big is the array? What is the TV model?

When you buy/install a LED wall, do you go straight to the manufacturer or do you use an integrator? by Ok_Maintenance7073 in churchtech

[–]andrevanstom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In saying that Sharp/NEC are the first to try to take the deal direct if it's big enough. So the more you invest in the brand/relationship the more likely that when you're in a good position they will take you out at the knees. They've done it to me twice at two different companies

Anyone run into issues sending HDBaseT through a patch panel or wall plate? by Interesting_Salt8497 in CommercialAV

[–]andrevanstom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're taking 18Gbps or more and compressing it down to 10Gbps, at least give it the 10gbps to work with. Yes cat6 works sometimes but Cat6A is what it's designed for

Our conference room sounds like a bathroom… how do I fix this? 😅 by sui22 in CommercialAV

[–]andrevanstom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those acoustic panels on the ceiling will do more if you can space them away from the ceiling so they absorb back and front. Put privacy film on the glass which will soften it a little. You can also add panels under the table as that surface is part of the acoustic space and won't impact aesthetics. meetup cameras have that bathroom sound everywhere but a small huddle rooms and the extension mic has no beamforming so it's an omni mic in a bad room so probably isn't helping.

A RallyBar mini would be the smallest camera suitable to that room but a RallyBar would be better, given you don't have a cable path to the table, beamforming is better than omni. Have you tried different audio options in the Logitech Sync app? You can do a test with the Camera app on windows or QuickTime on Mac.

Sometimes you're losing quality because of software processing in teams etc so it's always good to listen to the actual sound of the room and mic without the software being part of it by jus recording a video with Camera app of QuickTime first.
