Build a feature with the Hudu team: Documenting Patch Panels

Hi! We've got a new feature "a-brewing" over here at Hudu. A solution for documenting patch panels :)

Here is an opportunity to share feedback on any part of the feature, whether it's functionality, design, or really whatever is on your mind. Or just sit back and watch as we build (hopefully) a really cool feature for you :)

Goal of the feature

  • Create a V1 for easy documentation of patch panels inside of a rack.

Use-cases for V1

  • Allow users to document patch panels by choosing groups, total ports, and number of rows.

  • Allow users to highlight certain ports for easy visualization

  • Allow users to link ports to assets (which could be populated via RMM, user-input, etc.)

  • Allow users to use a custom type if our built-in tool doesn't work for a device in a rack. Great for cable managers, etc.
