The vector stencils library 'Rack diagrams' contains 33 rack design elements for drawing the computer network server rack diagrams.' A 19-inch rack is a standardized frame or enclosure for mounting multiple equipment modules.Įach module has a front panel that is 19 inches (482.6 mm) wide, including edges or ears that protrude on each side which allow the module to be fastened to the rack frame with screws.Equipment designed to be placed in a rack is typically described as rack-mount, rack-mount instrument, a rack mounted system, a rack mount chassis, subrack, rack mountable, or occasionally simply shelf.
This works great, especially when you're not adding wiring much or doing anything that causes frequent updates. Security monitoring, network, VoIP, etc).I've seen some offices diagram their entire space and then chart out where the network and phone outlets are. For example, I've done wiring where I would use different colored wires for different LANs (this applies in cases where an office has two separate LANs for different purposes, i.e. You just need to make a point to document whatever that convention is. There really isn't an industry standard, so everyone has their own conventions. Sharepoint went down and they needed to recover. There will be a few times where you need to know what is connected where and because of a network or server problem you can't get to the online doc.I know of one place that documented the recovery process for their Sharepoint environment in Sharepoint. We would document what cable number was connected to which station number, and which switch, and witch port within a switch.You can maintain online, but you do want to print a copy off every now and then and store offline. Every cable was numbered and each station was number. I personally have never seen one.We used to use Excel. Is there some industry recognised way of representing this data.If necessary I will just do it in excel in the style above, but this must be something commonly done and perhaps there is a standard way or an app that makes it easy to generate and keep updated. Red cable plugs into Dlink switch port2Etc.Netgear so on. Green cable plugs into Netgear swtich Port44. Green cable plugs into Netgear swtich Port43. Green cable plugs into Netgear swtich Port42. Of course a spreadsheet springs to mind and this will be the default choice, but I wondered if there is a better way.E.g.Patch panel Ports1.

Hi,I visited an office setup by someone else and in there comms room I made a note of every port used on the patch panel and switches so we can work out a lot of things.Right now this is all stored in pen and paper, but I of course want to transfer this data to an electronic storage.I wondered, is there a standard way of representing the way ports are patched up, that is easy to document and update.
