I have been working on the home distribution center, and think it is finally done! From Top left to bottom right: We have the DSL modem (delivering 12Mb/s down), the phone/cat5 distribution and inbound phone line, N wireless router, video and security camera distribution and inbound satellite, audio distribution, the OOMA VoIP line, and the networked RAID server.

For those of you keeping count, there is two phone lines going to every room via cat5. Six modulated channels (four separate satellite channels and two security cameras) going to every room via coax cable. Nine hard wired Ethernet devices, not including the VoIP box, and typically seven wireless devices. Currently distributed audio to three rooms, with plans to add more.

There is the server which house all our music and video collection, documents and programs, and is accessible from any of the computer in our house.

The space next to the router is to add a second router for public use. This will keep our computers and data safe from quest that visit the house.

All of this jam packed in a little, easy to access space out of the way. And I still can’t find a good job
