Project Description:
The City of Fort Collins is constructing a new office building at 222 LaPorte Avenue. This
building will house the Utilities Customer Connections and the City’s Sustainable Services
Departments. The building is three stories with total of 37,500 SF which will have an open floor
plan with office and collaboration spaces in the middle and cubical work stations throughout.
The building is designed to be very energy efficient, using innovative ideas for the building
envelope including exposed infrastructure. Each floor will be open to the structure above so the
General Contractor is installing cable trays above on each floor for shared low voltage wiring.
The cable trays run down the center section parallel to the length of the building. The selected
contractors will need to appropriately get their wiring from the exterior walls over to the cable
trays and make it look acceptable by the Owner. The IDF rooms are located in the center area
of each floor with a vertical raceway passing between floors. Each IDF will need to have two
cabinets and be installed per the IT specifications provided in Attachment 1. The cabling
contractor will be required to complete all work for each network and coax connection as shown
on the attached drawings (Attachments 2 & 3), this includes security cameras, wall phones,
data, wireless access points, projectors, mgmt. access (lighting, door access, HVAC, etc.), coax
for TV, and specialty items like an elevator and fire and security alarms. In addition to the

3.1.6. Personnel industry trained and certified in fiber optic cabling, splicing, termination and testing
techniques will be used, if such work is required on a project. Personnel must have experience and
competency using a light meter and Optical Time Domain Reflectometer (OTDR).
4. Design Elements
There are two major aspects of a good network/ telecommunications design: spaces and pathways. Each
of these two aspects consists of multiple components as defined below.
4.1. Spaces
The term “spaces” refers to the specific rooms dedicated to network and telecommunication services
and/or equipment. These spaces are the Building Service Entrance, Network Closets (MDF/IDF) and Data
Centers. Each has a specific function; however all are very inter-dependent.
4.1.1. Building Service Entrance
4.1.1.1. This is the room in which voice, data and video distribution media systems enter the building.
These include internal sources such as inter-building connections as well as external sources such as
PRPA, CenturyLink and Comcast. The room is dedicated solely for network infrastructure and associated
equipment. This room often serves the dual purpose of being a Building Service Entrance Room and a
Network Closet (MDF).
G-4
4.1.1.2. The Building Service Entrance is a room utilized to terminate and interconnect outside
cable/fiber with the backbone (data and/or voice) cable and/or fiber used throughout the building. It
provides facilities for large splice containers, cable termination mounting, and possibly electrical
protectors. All cabling is to be terminated on a patch panel.
This space is in addition to any space required for network switching equipment or active system
components.
4.1.1.3. This space should be located on the lower level. Design and location of the room should also
take into consideration the route and placement of the City’s fiber and copper backbone to and from
connecting buildings.
The room should be within 50’ of an exterior wall.
4.1.1.4. The minimum floor space requirements, for a broad range of projects is typically 10 feet x 10
feet. Additional space may need to be provided if this room is expected to double as a Building Service
Entrance and a Network Closet. The IT Project Engineer in conjunction with the designated Facilities
Project Manager, along with the integrated design team, will determine if additional or less space is
needed during the design phase of the project.
Comment: the network space should be designed appropriately for the building just like all the other
spaces.
4.1.1.5. The door to the Building Service Entrance room (network closet) needs to open outwards and be
controlled by a door access system (electronic locking/fobbed).
4.1.2. Network Closet
4.1.2.1. The network closet is used to house network and telecommunications equipment intended to
service users throughout the building. This type of equipment commonly includes phone systems,
network equipment, video distribution systems, racks, patch panels and cabinets. The network closet is
the space that also supports the cable, fiber, and the equipment necessary for transmission between the
building’s backbone system and the station outlets.
4.1.2.2. Although this space may incorporate the space requirements of the Building Service Entrance by
increasing the size of the room, it must be designed as a true network equipment room in terms of its
support environment.
The optimum effective cooling air temperature of this space is 80 degrees F with a relative humidity
range of 10% to 85% non-condensing when only housing network equipment. *Note: You may wish to
consider how this change may affect any future placement of servers in this space. It is important to
note that some of the telecommunications equipment (e.g. servers), which may be placed in this space
can only function in an environment that is between 68 degrees F and 72 degrees F effective cooling air
temperature with a relative humidity range of 10% to 40%, noncondensing. Anything outside of these
ranges will cause damage to those units. It is important to work with the IT Project Engineer to
G-5
determine the exact specification required for this space as equipment can vary from one closet to
another.
*Please keep in mind that changing the optimum temperature needs to take into account a person’s
suitable working environment.
4.1.2.3. The air handling system for equipment rooms must be designed to provide positive air flow and
cooling 24/7 including times when the building air system is shut down or turned down during non-
business hours. This may require separate air and/or cooling systems. If this room is to be used as a
central communications hub, then the air handling system should be connected to the buildings backup
power generation system.
4.1.2.4. The size of this room can vary depending on the communication requirements of the building
but are typically 10’ x 10’. The actual dimensions will be determined by the IT Project Engineer in
conjunction with the Facilities Project Manager.
4.1.2.5. The network closet should be located near the center of the building, but no farther than 290
feet (horizontal cable pathway distance) from the farthest station outlet. The average distance should
be in the 100 to 200 foot range. There may be a need for more than one network closet per floor based
on the design of the building.
4.1.2.6. The network closets should, if possible, be located directly above one another in a multiple story
building. If the entire space cannot be located in-line, space will need to be provided for the in-line
placement of backbone (riser) conduits. If a multi-story building requires two or more rooms on every
floor, each series of rooms should, if possible, be stacked one above the other. Multiple rooms located
on the same floor must be interconnected with conduits or cable tray.
4.1.3. General Requirements – Building Service Entrance and Network Closets
4.1.3.1. The room should be equipped with ceiling space that does not contain water pipes, air
conditioning ducts, drainage pipes or other utilities crossing through. The exception to the water pipes
are those pipes installed in conjunction with a fire suppression system.
4.1.3.2. Limit the possibility of flooding by configuring the surrounding floor area to drain accidental
leaks before the network closet becomes involved.
4.1.3.3. Locate the equipment room away from potential sources of interference such as electrical
power supply transformers, motors, generators, elevator equipment or other such devices that has the
potential for creating electromagnetic fields.
4.1.3.4. Equipment rooms must be dedicated rooms and are not to be shared with other functions such
as a janitorial closet, electrical closet or storage room. Fire and other alarm equipment should be
located in a separate room. Placement of any non-network equipment or colocation in these rooms
must be approved by the IT Project Engineer in conjunction with the integrated design team. See Section
G-6
4.3 for specifics for the use of network spaces and pathways by third parties regarding placement and
installation of equipment, cables and systems.
4.1.3.5. One wall, to the extent necessary, must be covered with 3/4” A-C plywood, painted and
mounted vertically starting 2” above the finished floor and secured to the walls. Multiple plywood
panels must be mounted in contact with one another leaving no gaps between the sheets. The IT Project
Engineer will designate the location of these panels.
4.1.3.6. The lighting design shall provide sufficient overhead lights installed to provide a minimum of 540
lux (50 foot candles) illumination measured 3’ above the finished floor. These lights must be separately
switched within the room and must be mounted a minimum of 8.5’ above the finished floor. Needs to
accommodate 8’ tall cabinets.
4.1.3.7. The door to the room must be a minimum of 36” wide by 6’8” high and at a minimum, use a key
lock that is keyed to the IT Telecom Primus Grand Master (GM3). Electronic locks are to be included in
the design and utilized when a facility is remodeled or a new facility is wired and equipped to support
electronic door locks. The door should open outward.
4.1.3.8. An electrical ground as defined by building codes must be provided on a 6” bar mounted 6”
above the finished floor. This grounding bar should be connected to building steel (main building ground
electrode), a separate concrete-encased electrode, or a buried ring ground with 00 copper wire using a
short feed to the actual ground. It should be noted that NEC stipulates that communications cable
shields be grounded as close as possible to the entrance into the building (NEC Article 800-4).
4.1.3.9. A minimum of two dedicated 20 Amp, 110 volt AC quad electrical outlets, each on separate
circuits, shall be installed in each room. At least one of these dedicated circuits will feed power that is
located in the network cabinets . Circuits providing power to the racks will need to be suspended from
the ceiling above the racks or installed into the rack or cabinet as designated by the IT project engineer.
Additional power outlets will be placed in the wall and/or in racks or cabinets in quantities and locations
designated by the IT Project Engineer. The IT Project Engineer will determine current loads and
determine how many circuits and receptacles are needed.
4.1.3.10. All conduits entering the building from outside shall be plugged with reusable stoppers to
eliminate the entrance of water or gases into the entrance room. All conduits leaving the entrance room
for other portions of the building will be fire-stopped after the installation of cable.
4.1.3.11. The room shall be equipped with a constant positive air flow sufficient to provide a minimum
of two air changes per hour. If a room serves as both the building Service Entrance and a network closet,
it may need to be equipped with a separately controlled HVAC. Once the design of the building is known
and customer requirements have been fully developed, the IT Project Engineer can determine whether
additional HVAC equipment will be recommended.
4.1.3.12. Rooms will need to have an anti-static floor. A sealed concrete floor is acceptable. At no time is
carpeting to be installed.
G-7
4.1.3.13. Do not install a suspended acoustical tile or other false ceiling.
4.1.3.14. The permanent walls of the room need to extend to the rafters of the hard ceiling in order to
prohibit access to the room by climbing over walls from an adjoining room.
4.1.3.15 A cabinet or Cube-IT is required to house cable terminations and network equipment. The use
of a cabinet or Cube-IT is at the discretion of the IT Project Engineer based on project requirements.
Interconnections between multiple cabinets are to be terminated on patch panels housed in the
respective cabinet.
4.1.4. Data Center
4.1.4.1. Data Centers will house various computer systems including servers, storage and other devices
in addition to network, voice and video related equipment and systems. Their HVAC systems are sealed
and separate from the rest of the building. Data Centers will also have independent power service to the
room along with room-based UPS systems. Multistage pre-action fire suppression systems utilizing gas
and water are used, as required, based on function and customer need.
4.1.4.2. There will be situations where a department may house computer systems in rooms in their
work areas. These rooms do not constitute data centers and are not to be considered as such.
4.1.4.3. General Requirements
4.1.4.3.1. The data center room should not have any windows on exterior walls.
4.1.4.3.2. Designers and installers of the data center are to be certified as being skilled and
knowledgeable with data center design and construction. All data center designs and requirements are
subject to the approval of the IT project engineer.
4.1.4.4. Security Requirements
4.1.4.4.1. Access to the data center is done via key and electronic lock. The key is not to be a part of the
building master key system rather a separate IT Telecom Primus Grand Master (GM3) key.
4.1.4.4.2. An electronic lock using an access control device shall be used on all doors leading into the
data center.
4.1.4.4.3. The data center is to be considered a restricted access facility. As such, the master key needs
to be strictly controlled. Access to the master key needs to be maintained in coordination with the IT
Project Engineer during the course of the project and with the designated person within City IT once the
project is completed, as required. A separate key must be placed in a knox box secured by a
combination code.
4.1.4.4.4. The access control list for the electronic lock including additions, deletions, and logging needs
to be maintained in collaboration with City IT.
G-8
4.1.4.5. Floor & Ceiling Requirements shall be determined by special conditions per project.
4.1.4.6. Fire Suppression must meet applicable codes and standards.
4.1.4.7. Electrical Requirements
4.1.4.7.1. The power supplying the data center is fed through an uninterruptible power supply (UPS)
that provides continuous power in the event of a general power failure. The UPS should have the
capability for sub-metering electrical usage for utility billing purposes (as determined necessary).
4.1.4.7.2. The UPS is also configured to filter and stabilize the power from the primary source.
4.1.4.7.3. The UPS is also supplemented by an independent power generator. This is to be determined
per project.
4.1.4.7.4. The battery racks for the UPS do not have to be in the data center. The battery racks should be
located in a room where the floor is at grade, if possible. The batteries can be of very significant weight,
in the range of several tons. The building structure where the battery racks are to be housed needs to
take into consideration the initial battery capacity plus the potential for expansion (modular). This is to
be determined per project.
4.1.4.8. HVAC Requirement
4.1.4.8.1. The data center has to be kept to an effective cooling air temperature of 68oF with the
average effective cooling air temperature in the 68 degrees F to 72 degrees F range. The size of the
room, the equipment that will occupy the room and anticipated growth, will determine the HVAC
capacity required.
4.1.4.8.2. Relative humidity needs to be maintained between 10% and 40% non-condensing at all times.
4.1.4.8.3. The data center HVAC system is a system that is independent from the rest of the building, but
the main building HVAC system may be the back-up for redundancy. The HVAC system shall be sub-
metered for utility billing purposes (as required).
4.1.4.8.4. HVAC systems are to be designed and configured to include alerting capabilities for
temperature, humidity and system failure events. The alert systems need to be able to send pager and
e-mail notifications as well as audible alerts within the data center.
4.1.4.8.5. The design and layout of the data center including the HVAC unit will need to take into
consideration the location of equipment cabinets. The cabinets will be arranged within reason to create
hot and cold alleys. The HVAC unit and ducting will need to be located in such a way as to optimize
airflow and the cooling of equipment.
G-9
4.2. Pathways
Pathways refer to the facilities and supporting structures used to transport network media from one
location to another. It is important to think in terms of pathways as more than simply conduit and to
properly design these portions of the distribution system.
4.2.1. Inter-Building Distribution System
4.2.1.1. This distribution system includes the conduit, tunnel system and related support structures
between buildings.
4.2.1.2. The designer must consider where the distribution system originates and determine what is
required to make it meet the needs of the new construction.
4.2.1.3. Although most design projects for individual City buildings do not specifically address
communications outside the building, care must be taken in developing plans for making these
connections. In some cases, a separate construction and/or installation contract might be required to
provide adequate pathways up to the point at which the building project can be interconnected. In
general, the following points should be observed when developing plans for communication feeder
facilities:
4.2.1.3.1. Anywhere from four to nine conduits ranging in size from 1.5” to 4” are required to feed an
average building. These conduits will be used for City fiber optic and copper cabling as well as third party
cables such as Comcast and CenturyLink. This is to be determined by the building design, per project.
4.2.1.3.2. The numbers, size and location of conduits will be determined by the IT Project Engineer,
Utilities Telecommunications Systems Administrator and the cabling needs of third parties such as
Comcast and CenturyLink in conjunction with the Facilities Project Manager.
4.2.1.3.3. All conduits entering the building will terminate outside the building in one or more vaults.
The number, placement, and type of vaults will be determined by the IT Project Engineer and Utilities
Telecommunications Systems Administrator in conjunction with the Facilities Project Manager and will
depend upon which utilities are involved, the total number of conduits entering the building, the
landscaping or hardscaping around the building, and other factors specific to a given site. Ideally, the
vault will be located in a grass or landscaped area. By example, a typical fiber optics vault would be
30"x48"x18" deep constructed of polymer concrete and mounted flush with the ground. The bottom
area of the vault would be bare ground covered with pea gravel or a similar covering. All conduits would
enter from under the bottom of the vault and extend approximately 4"- 6" above the gravel ground
cover. All conduits will contain mule tape and will be capped to prevent debris or animals from entering
the conduits. The vault cover will be made of polymer concrete, traffic rated to 20,000 pounds, non-skid
surface, with corner bolts or some other type of locking mechanism. Other vault types or configurations
may be substituted at the discretion of the IT Project Engineer. The area around any vault will be filled
and tamped to prevent erosion, sinking, or washout, and will then be landscaped to blend in with the
surrounding area. If the vault is located in a vehicle traffic area, a 6"- 12" space surrounding the vault
G-10
will be filled with concrete to a depth of 18" to further stabilize the vault. If the vault is located in a
pedestrian area, care must be taken to avoid any trip hazards (raised edges). Specific utilities such as
telephone or cable TV may have their own vault requirements.
4.2.1.3.4. The entrance conduits must be designed to allow the placement of various types of cables
including large copper cables, fiber optic cable (within inner duct), and coaxial cables.
4.2.1.3.5. Conduits will have no more than two 90 degree bends with a minimum bend radius of 2 feet.
Fiber optic cabling may require a larger radius, typically ten times the outside diameter of the fiber
cable.
4.2.1.3.6. The entrance conduits should enter the service entrance spaces either directly from outside,
perpendicular to the outer wall at a level above 8’ or through the floor parallel with the outer wall
keeping the conduit bend radius greater than 48”. Variances from the 8’ requirement will need to be
approved by the IT project engineer. The entrance conduits must be protected from potential water
damage and from vehicles running into them. Below grade building entrances with sufficient conduits
are much preferred as that avoids the poly-to-steel conduit transition at the side of the building, a box
on the building and conduit exposed to view and possible vandalism.
4.2.2. Building Backbone Raceway (Riser and Tie)
4.2.2.1. The risers are pathways which connect all network closets and space throughout an individual
building. They may consist of conduit, cable trays, or sleeves to allow for cabling to enter and exit the
network closets.
4.2.2.2. The term “backbone raceway” replaces both the term “riser” and “tie” conduit to reflect the
need for both vertical and horizontal pathways in a building distribution system. In general, this is the
path used for placement of network media between the Service Building Entrance room, the network
closets, and the station outlets. These pathways must typically support copper, fiber optic, and coaxial
cables serving equipment and should be cross-connected to station outlets located on each floor of the
building. “J-hooks” may be permissible with the approval of the IT Project Engineer.
4.2.2.3. All backbone conduits and sleeves must be 4” in diameter or as agreed to by the IT project
engineer in conjunction with the Facilities Project Manager. Conduits must be designed with no more
than two 90 degree bends. The minimum number of vertical backbone (riser) conduits is 5. However,
the number can change as the building customer requirements become known. Again, this should be
based upon actual needs.
4.2.2.4. General Requirements:
4.2.2.4.1. Pathways shall be designed and installed to meet applicable building and electrical codes or
regulations including the applicable TIA/EIA Network standards. (See 3.1.2 above.)
4.2.2.4.2. Grounding and bonding of pathways shall comply with applicable codes and regulations.
G-11
4.2.2.4.3. Pathways shall not have exposed sharp edges that may come into contact with network
cables.
4.2.2.4.4. The number of cables placed in a pathway shall not exceed manufacturer specifications nor
will the geometric shape of a cable be affected.
4.2.2.4.5. Pathways shall not be located in elevator shafts.
4.2.2.4.6. Sleeves are to be used in backbone vertical pathways. Sleeves should extend a minimum of 2”
above the floor space. If the room is equipped with a raised floor then the 2” shall be above the base
floor and not the raised floor. The sleeves are also to be 4” below the true ceiling deck in rooms where
conduit is running from a room on the floor above. All sleeves are placed to provide short and straight
pathways between floors.
4.2.2.4.7. Conduits used to interconnect the Building Service Entrance and/or network closets should be
placed above the ceiling with no more than a total of two 90 degree bends. Do not angle these conduits
down into the termination space. Fix the conduit 4” to 6” inside the room at a right angle to the wall. All
metal conduits must be fitted with a collar or end bushing to eliminate damage to the cables during
pulling.
4.2.2.4.8. Pull boxes shall be placed in conduit runs which exceed 100’ or in situations which require
more than two 90 degree bends (IT Project Engineer approval). Such pull boxes must be located so as to
provide free and easy access in straight sections of conduit only and must be installed to allow cable to
pass-through from one conduit to another.
4.2.2.4.9. Two 2” conduits must be dedicated from a sealed junction box on the roof of the building in a
direct line to a specified network closet for use as an antenna access point, as determined necessary. In
addition, a separate earth ground must be provided at the roof junction box point and the antenna
conduit must be grounded separately from the isolated ground in the network closet. A 1” conduit
terminating in a weatherproof duplex box must be provided from the roof to the closest electrical panel
for electrical power, as required.
4.2.2.4.10. All riser sleeves must be fire stopped and sealed following code and manufacturers’
instructions, as required.
4.2.3. Horizontal Cabling
4.2.3.1. The horizontal pathways between the network closet and the station outlet locations receive
the heaviest usage and the most complaints of any component of a network distribution system. It is an
area with a significant number of alternatives and one which frequently falls victim to budget cuts.
When working on this issue the building designer should identify methods for placing and supporting
both the initial station cable and future cable additions.
4.2.3.2. The designer should assume the City will install plenum rated station cables to satisfy code
requirements for return-air plenums.
G-12
4.2.3.3. Cables will be bundled using Velcro strapping and labeled at each end of the cable run plus
every 15 feet along the length of the run.
4.2.3.4. The label must indicate the owner of the cable as well as the source and destination of the
cable.
4.2.3.5. Cabling installed in the ceiling space/air plenum for future devices (e.g. security cameras) shall
have a 25’ end loop and be terminated in a wall mount box (biscuit) in the ceiling space.
4.2.3.6 Every network closet must provide a minimum of twice the amount of horizontal pathway access
as is required to support the initial installation, as required.
4.2.3.7. Any outlet separated from the main horizontal support system, such as a tray, by a fire or smoke
partition, must be provided a rated pathway.
4.3. Shared Spaces
4.3.1.1. The Building Service Entrance, network closet and the Data Centers are for equipment owned
and/or maintained by the City of Fort Collins. Equipment and systems from third parties should not to
be housed in these facilities without the approval of the IT Project Engineer.
4.3.1.1.1. Exceptions include third party equipment and systems that are installed in support of City
operations and systems. These may include but may not be limited to Comcast equipment to provide
independent internet connectivity and cable television connections; CenturyLink equipment to provide
telephone connectivity. The final placement of this equipment and related components are subject to
the approval of the Network Administration Manager or IT Project Engineer in collaboration with the
Facilities Project Manager and Service Area Director.
4.3.1.1.2. Examples of third party equipment and systems that cannot be housed in these rooms are
commercial entities using City facilities in support of their infrastructure systems and where the City is
not connecting to or utilizing the equipment to be installed.
4.3.1.2. The pathways and risers within City owned facilities can be used to provide needed copper and
fiber cable runs needed by the third parties within reason and as approved by the IT Project Engineer.
4.3.1.2.1. Third party copper and fiber cables must be bundled separately from City cabling systems.
4.3.1.2.2. The bundled cable runs need to be labeled at each end of the cable run plus every 15 feet
along the length of the run. Cables will be bundled using Velcro strapping.
4.3.1.2.3. The label must indicate the owner of the cable as well as the source and destination of the
cable.
4.3.1.3. The Network Administration Manager or IT Project Engineer must be provided with written
requests to house third party equipment, systems and cables and the installation of the items are
subject to his/her approval. The written request must include:
G-13
4.3.1.3.1. A schematic diagram of the systems;
4.3.1.3.2. All related drawings showing the installed equipment;
4.3.1.3.3. Who is authorized to access the equipment;
4.3.1.3.4. Who are the contact individuals for the installation and maintenance of the equipment.
5. Design Issues
5.1. This subsection provides an overview of the minimum network infrastructure requirements in the
specific area of new construction. It is intended to be used during program planning.
5.2. Office Spaces
5.2.1. Office spaces range from the standard one-person space to multi-room office suites and all need
to be suitably equipped to access various City network resources. All offices must be designed to
support multiple voice and data outlets situated to allow changes in furniture layouts, depending on the
use of the facility.
5.2.2. Newer buildings and installations may be using data lines for voice connectivity and this will alter
the combination of outlets in office spaces. The IT Project Engineer will work with the customer and
Facilities Project Manager to determine the number of station outlets required during the design of the
facility.
5.2.3. All offices must be equipped with a minimum of 2 duplex communication outlets, preferably on
opposite walls and near electrical outlets. Larger offices and open suite areas should have multiple
communication outlets with an average of 2 per 75 square feet of floor space. There should be no less
than one at every other electrical outlet. There may also be staff and office locations that will need to be
provided with an additional video or coaxial outlet. Smaller offices or rooms may need fewer outlets.
The IT Project Engineer will work with the customer and Facilities Project Manager to determine
locations and the number of station outlets.
5.2.4. The furniture plan has to consider its location in reference to station outlet locations. Furniture
should not be placed in such a way as to prevent access to station outlets and nearby electrical outlets.
5.3. Station Outlets
5.3.1. New construction or remodel projects where new walls are being installed will require that
network station outlets be installed similar to electrical outlets with an outlet box mounted in the wall
and vertical conduit going up the wall ending above the false ceiling space. In areas with a hard ceiling,
the conduit should be extended to an appropriate pull box at the proximity of what would be considered
a suspended ceiling location. The network cabling will then be installed through the conduit to the
station outlet. An access panel for future additional outlets should be a primary consideration.
G-14
5.3.2. New construction will require that wall outlets be installed at the same height as electrical
outlets. Exceptions could include lab areas that may require outlets above work surfaces.
Wall phone units may also need to be installed according to ADA regulations.
5.3.3. In remodeling projects that include the installation of new station cabling in existing walls
without pre-existing conduit, an outlet box will be installed and the cable fished down the inside of the
wall as appropriate if the wall has an accessible space.
5.3.4. Installation of vertical drops and exterior cable raceways visibly placed on interior walls will not be
used in new construction unless deemed necessary and approved by the Facilities Project Manager and
the IT Project Engineer.
Remodel projects may require exterior cable raceways due to problems with existing construction and
these will need to be approved by the Facilities Project Manager and the IT Project Engineer.
5.3.5. Locations where the station outlets are to be installed in office furniture or cubicles need to be
identified. The IT Project Engineer, cabling installer and the Facilities Project Manager will need to
ensure that proper outlets, furniture interfaces, and cable length are provided for proper termination in
the furniture.
5.3.6. Sometimes it is not possible to reach station outlet locations via the wall or ceiling and may need
to be installed via the floor. This is especially common in cubicle areas. In these cases, appropriate size
and quantity of conduit will need to be installed in the floor and in the case of the ground floor, installed
before the slab is poured. An alternative to conduit in the floor is a raised floor office area.
5.4. Conference Rooms
5.4.1. Conference rooms should be equipped with a minimum of 1 duplex voice/data outlet per wall,
with two video outlets on opposite walls, as appropriate per project requirements.
5.4.2. The IT Project Engineer and the Facilities Project Manager will work with the customer to
determine the optimal number of station outlets and where they will be located. These locations may
include the wall, floor or terminated in furniture such as conference room tables.
5.5 Security Considerations
5.5.1. All network closets will be electronically locked (fobbed).
5.5.2 Security cameras should be installed to monitor access to the network closet and data centers.
