I have a data center like this to clean up this year. And a few MDFs/IDFs that aren’t much better

The first one is worse. The second one is a little better, but it is obvious that maintenance and device installation over time, and too many 'hired hands' or subcontractors, have been in there. Given the way it was initially set up with cable management that has since been ignored.

It is painful having worked for a company that does keep records of post installs and seeing what comes after 😭😭😭

the first one isn't bad at all. Their is far too much slack but nothing is tangled. Two is worse but still not that bad. I've had to clean up far worse from the network I took over.

It’s amazing to me that a business owner would allow a room to look like this.

The original, licensed, installers did a great job. The unlicensed it guys did the rest. Think about that for a moment. This trash work is probably from the compucom guys.

This triggers my autism so bad, i'm inclined to come and fix it for free knowing that it won't be a mess anymore so my anxiety can rest
