[Noisebridge-discuss] In search of a cheap/free metal enclosure OR a short story about getting DSL2 installed

[Matt Peterson]

You might wanna try a plastic case due to mildew and rust concerns,  
Pelican is popular with the show-off crowds.  Mouser and other outlets  
offer various plastic enclosures designed for placing sensitive gear  
in harsh environments.  I've had good luck with Stahlin enclosures.

One thing to verify is the voltage/amperage after the PoE run is stil  
within spec.  Generally equipment such as IP phones or WiFi access  
points with built-in PoE support are very forgiving on this, while DSL  
modems may not be.
