Designed and built an enterprise-style home lab using Dell rack servers, Cisco networking equipment, a patch panel, structured Ethernet cabling, Proxmox virtualization, Linux systems, network-attached storage, and multiple RAID configurations.
The project includes:
- Installation and organization of multiple Dell servers in a small server rack
- Cisco switch and router connectivity
- Patch-panel installation and port organization
- Custom Ethernet cables created in different lengths
- RJ45 measuring, cutting, stripping, termination, crimping, and testing
- Cable labelling and physical-layer troubleshooting
- Proxmox installation and virtual machine deployment
- CPU, memory, storage, and virtual network allocation
- Multiple Linux physical and virtual system installations
- NAS configuration and shared storage access
- RAID capacity, redundancy, performance, and failure-protection comparisons
- Server, network, virtualization, and storage troubleshooting
- Architecture diagrams, technical documentation, and privacy-conscious evidence
This is an independent home-lab and portfolio project created for continuous technical development. It does not represent production enterprise administration or paid infrastructure experience.
