New house network design

[ggadrian]

86F but days of 90s right? I would be worried about that type of heat with routers\switches. I have thought about running my networking out in the garage in Minnesota. The winters would be fantastic. But then there is a 2 month period in July\August my gear would get killed from the heat.

I guess the key is there good circulation in the garage? I forgot about the lack of AC is normal in many parts of Europe. If you had good circulation probably not as big an issue as I am making it out to be.

Nececitaras un ventilador al menos.

Yes, it might get occasionally to 90s, but Barcelona is usually more humid than really hot. For example if you go further away from the coast it easily gets to 105-110ºF in the hottest days of the summer

I was planning in adding a couple of 120-140mm fans to the rack to keep the air moving. I hope that will keep the router and switch from dying to quickly.

If I tell my girlfriend I plan to put a rack inside the house she'll probably kill me faster than the heat would kill the router hahaha

I am thinking more box fan size
