This network closet was created in the top of the front hall, coat closet. The patch pannel has space for 16
circuits of which 11 positions are currently in use. A Motorola Surfboard cable modem is the connection to
Comcast. 

A Linksys VOIP router provides the office phone connection and a D-Link wireless router  supports  a WEP
encrypted wireless network. A D-Link DSS-16+ was a recent $47 acquisition to support the wired network.

The closet has its own power circuit that is not shared by any other room. The switch in the door frame turns
the light on when you open the door.
