RE: Re: ISDN TA to HH Wallport

["Mark Harrison" <Mark.Harrison@xxxxxxx>]

Phil,

Mark's guide:

- Reserve the colour RED for cross-over cables (ie ones not
wired normally)

- Reserve the colour GREY for temporary (on the basis that you
always have temporary greys lying about)

- Pick your three main applications (probably Main network,
Voice, KAT5) and assign BLUE, GREEN, YELLOW

- Use BLACK for "weird stuff"

.... I would put Firewall DMZs and ISDN lines on black

(And this is important) Find a colour printer, and print out a one page
colour coding. Pin this up next to your patch panel.

Don't bother pinning up a patching allocation list next to the patch
panel - you won't bother updating it ;-)

Already bit the bullet and tried it ... so I now have a blue network
cable
connecting my router to the ISDN wallport.

Using yellow for LAN too (unless I make up my own then it's boring
grey).

Haven't decided on the wiring colours for the patch panels (when I do
them)
as I'm waiting for a switcher first. *grin*
