Description

I wanna set up my first mini-lab, I have a small home office and wanna put all of this in the space of a concrete column/wall that is close.

Now I think a mini-rack like the ones from DeskPi fits the bill, but wanna confirm what is involved here.

Own:

- Modem Arris
- MiniPro RAID V3 x 1
- MINISFORUM UM790 Pro Mini PC AMD for CI x 1

To buy:

- Mac Mini M4 for CI x 1
- Cloud Gateway Max x 1
- Lite 8 PoE x 1 (that will power by PoE 3 'remote' devices in the house)

In special with relation to which power strip/ups/ups and which wiring or any other thing I need to get, which patch cables, and how to keep this clean.

For power I have checked the options that are discussed here, but because I'm in Colombia my shipping options are more limited.

I found for example:

But I'm unsure if this can provide the necessary power for the mini pcs.
