order onsite tools for eqdfw/eqord
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

I need to order the tools and accessories that are listed on T91077 & T91079.

Two of each of the following:

  • - MegaPro Electronic bits set screwdriver
  • - USB to serial adapter - laptop connection to router for onsite troubleshooting
  • - Power Cables for routers (4 each) nema 5-15 to c19

Additional items:

  • - fiber optic patches (see note below) (need @mark or @faidon to suggest quantity)
  • - fiber optic tester (sc and lc adapters) for eqord. eqdfw can use the tester from codfw (they are expensive) or can order one to keep at the peering site (@mark or @faidon advise?)
  • Note: I've emailed EQ to determine if the patch panels for these two sites will be the SC connection (like used in eqiad.)

I don't think we need RJ45 tools, testers etc for the what, 2 UTP cables we're gonna have at that site. (it's all fiber pretty much) :) Especially not in eqdfw, which is close to codfw anyway. I have not once used a fiber cleaning tool in my life either, so while it may make sense for our bigger locations to have one, I think we can really do without here.

@mark advised not to purchase the fiber cleaner.

Also, in retrospect, will we have any rj45 connections at the peering sites? If not, no need to purchase a cable stripper/crimper.
