Cat6 Ethernet Structured Cabling

This is the cheapest SFP+ switch (but reliable) I could find for my homelab. Many others are more expensive. After reading reviews on the Mikrotik SFP+ options I decided to stay with Unifi since I already had many Ubiquiti Ethernet switches and a controller in place. I am also connecting this to a Unifi 24-port via 1-Gb SFP as a link and connecting to my core switch via 10GbE over CAT6. Core switch is an FS.COM unit with a 10GbE Ethernet transceiver. No issues negotiating to 10GbE. The CAT6 cable run is probably under 50 feet. I am also using old Finisar transceivers without issue, but have not tried DAC cables yet. However, if you do not have a Unifi Controller in place perhaps wait for the new QNAP managed combo switches coming out. It will be a lot simpler. Or you can get the more expensive EdgeSwitch ES-16-XG.

I was putting audio within a mini storage in the hallways and the only cabling I had available from the office was ethernet. Thankfully I had seen Dante talked about in a console mixing setting that you can move audio within your network with POE Switches and ethernet. It was easy to get it working with 2 of these. To get the 3rd one I had to reach out to support which I merely needed to open the setting for the audio source and create a Multicast Flow for it, which made the whole setup work.

I like the white cat6 cable.

This is the best planner ever. It is very well structured and has a work flow no other planner can match.

Good Cabling

Ethernet cables are ethernet cables, but these are fine!

It's a case. Plenty of cabling options.

Quality CAT6 cables and best snagless design!

I got this UPS for my structured media enclosure because it's the only one that was small enough. It's well build and does what you'd expect.

Very useful for stress relief cabling for my BMPCC.
