Hate submitting my resume/job application online for a clerk position. Face to face meeting is so much faster and more reliable.

Patch Panels don't do anything. Switches... Switch.

You take bare cables from all the rooms and run them into a patch panel.

So if you have an X port patch panel. Don't you usually also need an X port switch to make the network work still?

You don't have to fill the patch panel. I'm probably going to buy a 48 port patch panel. Then mount it between my switches. Use 0.5ft or 1 ft Cat 6 cable to connect everything.

I feel like a patch panel would really help organize all the ports and where they are coming from.

When I work on things that involve wires I get a bit crazy.
It must be super clean. Organized so almost anyone can understand. Must look like Jesus

That's the plan. I still have a lot of research to do before installing. So I may be wrong,

Also, my shoulders and upper back feel like I've been pulling heavy objects towards myself all day... but I haven't. I have no idea why I'm so sore and tired.
