I'm in the process of adapting a bungalow to make it wheelchair friendly - My Build Thread
As part of the build I'm wanting to run CAT6 to points in every room of the house and I've got a couple of mates who have offered to do it for me, if I can provide the kit.

My plan is to put a small wall mountable cabinet/rack in the Garage which will contain a 24port Patch Panel, 24port Rackmount switch, Wireless Router and my NAS and run the cable from there.

Bungalow Plans


I'm looking for a advice about the Size and Depth of cabinet I'll require to take my kit.

My NAS - Drobo 5N
  • Width: 5.9 in (150.3 mm)
  • Height: 7.3 in (185.4 mm)
  • Depth: 10.3 in (262.3 mm)
  • Weight: 8.5 lb (without hard drives, power supply, or packaging)

My Proposed Switch - HP Procurve 1410-24G
  • Width: 33.6 cm
  • Depth: 16.9 cm
  • Height: 4.4 cm
  • Weight: 1.35 kg
  • Rack Mounting Kit Included

Any help and advice would be great :)
