162. How are the network sockets identified?
This is a double socket. The identifiers are written together on a sticker on the socket. This is how to decipher them:
| Network socket identifier | Cross connect cabinet identifier | |
|---|---|---|
| Left socket | B1.216:05 | C1-D202-01-03 |
| Right socket | B1.216:06 | C1-D202-01-04 |
These numbers mean that the socket is located at the B1:216 beam in the B1:2 corridor. The cross connect cabinet serving this network socket is located in C1:2 and in this case the rack called C1-D202 in the panel number 1 and socket number 3 and 4.
Some of the sockets have room numbers instead of beam numbers where
the beam numbers are not applicable.
