Server Room Cable Management

I found a short video animation of patch panel cable management. This video is helpful to get an overview of the layout of cables in an organization with many networked computer, explaining how a patch panel is used to prevent cable clutter and confusion. The video shows the cabling from a computer on a desk to the wall jack, then from the back side of that wall jack running inside the walls and ceilings to a server room patch panel and from there to the switch.

The animation helps to show how patch panels fit in with networking devices like switches.

Bring Back Traditional Google Search – no AI

You can search Google with the Chrome web browser on Android without getting AI results by choosing the web-only mode from the menu at the top of a Google search page.

This article from JR Raphael at ComputerWorld details how to keep that web-only search as a default, as well as how to set up a web-only search view on the desktop.
