I currently have my home data center set up in a spare bedroom, but we’re planning to build a 30x50 shop soon. I'm thinking of dedicating a 10x10 room in the back specifically for the data center.
For those of you with a similar setup, how are you keeping dust to a minimum? Is it as simple as putting filters in front of the rack cabinets, or are there better solutions I should consider?
Hey everyone,
I'm working on getting my homelab cabling cleaned up and could really use some advice. I have a 24U rack, and as you can see in the pics, the Ethernet cables are a bit all over the place. The Rear is a mess as well.
Here's my setup:
10GbE/40GbE switch: Planning to use this for storage and vMotion traffic. (NOT in use yet)
1GbE network: Dedicated for IPMI and management interfaces.
Side panels on my rack make vertical cable management tough, so I need alternative ways to keep things clean.
What’s the best way to route and secure these cables so they look better and stay manageable? Would horizontal cable management help in this case? Any tips or products that you swear by?
Appreciate any advice! Pics attached for reference.
