PS: The cabling behind UPS/Comps is somewhat of a mess. Haven't gotten down on my knees to clean it up after the latest changes! |

Trenton, NJ |  Are the desk and cabinets custom? They're nice looking without being overboard.
I'm referring to your work station. (I can tell your rack is a custom job  ) |

1 edit | Yes . Cabinets and worktop are "custom built in" to fit the space.
The space worked out well though. They always seem to put the HVAC/hot water heaters in the center of the basement. We ended up just building a room around it and including the understair area. I keep a small table adjacent to the network equipment right near the "system switch" in the HVAC room so I can connect a laptop for easy access if I need to do work on the network.
