    Network Install - Phase 1

    Thanks, the rear is not accessible via a hinge or anything. However, all you have to do is flip it upside down and the contacts will be facing out for easy access. then after you get done punching the cables down, just flip it back the right way, if that makes sense. Here's a good video that...

    Intel Core i7 2600 8gb DDR3 Ram Would be running max of 6 dahua starlight turrets @ 15fps... Just asking cause i found for a super cheap price. Not sure how great it would run on a older second gen i7, though.
