RE: Not just a number

["Rob Mouser" <rmouser@xxxxxxx>]

I'm assuming you're talking 800 deep? In practice most HA kit will sit
comfortably in a 600 deep cab, unless you going to add some meaty
servers.
If you have loads of room then great but IMHO not a necessary
requirement.
Perhaps others have different views.

When you start to run all this cable you will KNOW you've gone mad :-)
Label label label that's all I can say. I managed to 'loose' a few
cables in Node '0' and a few hours with a tone tester is sole
destroying!

Many thanks
