Hello All,
I am starting a thread on an upcoming project in which we are revamping our new access-closets and are completely re cabling them. I am going to be posting before and after pictures so you all can be Wowed :) :wtf: :wtf:
@dean, can you make this thread sticky so everyone after can post their closet cleanups?
I've done a few closet cleanup's in my day. they are _very_ time consuming when they are a mess...unless things are well documented and you can snip..snip..snip...which is never true in a closet mess. plan accordingly.

Thank you for the warning ristau, I have everything documented in visio as to which actual patch panel port goes to which vlans/etc. I am VERY serious when it comes to documentation. We are bringing the new switches up, while the other switch is already up.
BEFORE:
This isn't completely before, we inserted all of the switches, and the RPS. I will make sure the next closet is a complete before
here is the after:
Here is our DMZ closet.
we upgraded from a single 5510 to 2 new 5525x's. new 2960x outside switches, cable consolidation and cleanup. 7 hour job.
:excited: Niiiiiiice.
I got some.. couple IDF's and MDF I did not too long ago.
annddd some scary ones I've seen :eek:
wow..... that last one.... hahahha Here is the one I will be working on in the next 2/3 weeks
Heres mine:

I wish posting before and after network setups wasn't a security issue :-(
