Is the new substation and network distributor building open?

Hello everyone,

Quick question: in the attached picture, you can see how the electrician installed the distributor for SAT and network in the basement as part of the new construction. Mounted openly on the wall, including green wiring. Is this okay or rather to be seen as a defect since this belongs in a distribution cabinet or at least should be covered? Are there simple solutions afterwards regardless of whether it is a defect or not? Thanks in advance

Homeway ..

It's not pretty but there's nothing to complain about as long as the [MEsswerte] fit. But actually, something like this properly belongs either in a distributor or data cabinet. However, apparently the money wasn't enough for that. I don't think much of the whole system, I see no advantages in the system. I'm much more flexible with a duplex data and a twin Sat.

I also see that the electrician probably didn't have much knowledge, otherwise he wouldn't use F screw connectors.

So no defect, thanks. Can you somehow put it yourself into a cabinet or hide it cleanly (I am mainly concerned about dust protection). What do you mean by the F connectors? As I said, everything that is green and practically goes into the distributor from above is from the electrician. What comes to the distributor from below comes from me. Thanks

The green Homeway cables have F screw connectors and not compression connectors, which Homeway does offer. A professional company should actually no longer use connectors that screw onto the cable for new installations.

And such stuff should usually be tidied up in a data cabinet or a media distributor.

All in all, it can be done nicer, the important thing is that the measurement values for data and satellite are correct.

Someone puked on the wall here without any enthusiasm or care, but that’s not a defect. These strips normally belong inside a distribution box on perforated sheet metal, then you can also screw a switch underneath (kind of like in the picture attached. With so few ports, you don’t need a rack). Does the rest of the installation look just as unmotivated?

If you don't agree on anything with the electrician beforehand, you get a functional solution that is usually just nailed to the wall. In your case, it still looks a bit careless. (If this were mine, I would whip the electrician with a network cable!). Luckily, the network ports are oriented downwards, so no dust and dirt can fall in.

Retrofitting into a cabinet often fails because you have to find a place for it, and if you have a place, the cables are too short to reach there.

PS: Where is the grounding for the whole thing?
