Thought I'd ask here one more time before searching eBay and stuff. To improve our evolving museum network, we can use the following: - Fanless rack-mount switch. Martin recommended the Juniper EX2200 or a fanless version of the Cisco 3010. He said the Cisco 2960 series also has fanless versions, but they sacrifice PoE which we need for security cameras. We could get by with 12 ports but 24 would be ideal - Rack-mountable UPS with good batteries. I don't have exact figures for the required specs. Stuff we'd be running: a couple of PC-like machines, small LCD monitor, small analog PBX, and no more than two network switches. The rack's other contacts do not need emergency power (stereo, minifridge .... well maybe I should reconsider about the minifridge ... in an emergency we might want a cold drink!) - Rack-mountable keyboard/mouse tray. - A bunch of the proper nuts/bolts to mount 4 or 5 components. - Unrelated: we could also use two chairs and one stool. We have some but they're old, breaking down, and don't match our decor. I would like to get nice ones that are typical black/chrome office designs. ________________________________ Evan Koblentz, director Vintage Computer Federation a 501(c)(3) educational non-profit evan@vcfed.org (646) 546-9999 www.vcfed.org facebook.com/vcfederation twitter.com/vcfederation instagram.com/vcfederation
