FL4 Recabling Project: Enhancing Network Infrastructure and Connectivity

DESCRIPTION

The FL4 Recabling Project aims to upgrade the network infrastructure in Foothills Lab 4, continuing efforts from the original FUN Project completed in December 1999. This initiative will involve the installation of high-performance cabling, including Category 6 copper media and optical fiber, to meet GigE standards and future-proof the network for at least a decade. The project is budgeted at $110,000 and will span approximately 38 weeks, with minimal disruption to daily work for FL4 staff. Significant improvements include enhanced telecommunications capabilities and optimized service infrastructure.

  1. FL4 Re-cabling “More FUN” Project Jim Van Dyke, vandyke@ucar.edu Web: http://cisl.ucar.edu/nets/projects/ni/FL4.wiring.project/index.shtml Wiki: https://wiki.ucar.edu/display/nets/FL4+Recabling+Project FUN Archive: http://cisl.ucar.edu/nets/internal/archives/projects/2000/fun/

  2. Discussed Today FL4 “FUN” History Project Scope Schedule Cabling Media Issues

  3. Foothills Lab 4 Building

  4. History – The “FUN” Project • Project Completed in 12/1999 • Cable installed • Two 4-pair Telephone cables • Four Category 5 Cables • Two Pair of 62.5um Fiber • Infrastructure Outlets were installed with ¾” conduit single runs to the Telecom Room or Vert. Chase

  5. Typical Siemon MMO Outlet

  6. Siemon MMO Fiber Tray & Routing

  7. Telecom Room FL4-1012

  8. 2009 Re-cabling Project Scope • Install cabling to meet GigE and beyond standards • Reuse as much existing infrastructure as possible • Have the cabling meet the networking need for at least the next 10 years • Budgeted amount for project is $110,000 • Individual group’s computer rooms are not in scope • Groups can “buy-in” to have their rooms upgraded

  9. Re-cabling Schedule • Will be scheduled after and with new phone deployment • Coordinates logical sections of the building • Must be in sequence with other infrastructure work • Works in concert with occupants to get project done and continue daily work • Work Zones • Would be different than 1999 project • Consolidation locations require larger areas

  10. First Floor

  11. Second Floor

  12. Third Floor

  13. Occupant Move Options • Relocate FL4 staff as necessary to CG2 temporary space and/or work from home • Relocate FL4 staff to other available space in FL4 and/or work from home • FL4 staff stay in office with shared telephone and wireless • Minimal disruption, 2-3 days for cable pulls/termination/testing • General noise in area

  14. Construction Schedule • TOTAL Duration of Project: 38 Weeks • 4 Weeks - Prepare FL4-1012 Room, 126 Outlets • 5 Weeks - East First Floor - 19 + 27 = 46 Outlets • 2 Days Move In • 2 Days Move Out • 5 Weeks - East Second Floor - 12 + 22 = 34 Outlets • 2 Days Move In • 2 Days Move Out • 5 Weeks - East Third Floor - 24 + 23 = 46 Outlets • 2 Days Move In • 2 Days Move Out

  15. Construction Schedule – Cont. • 4 Weeks - Prepare FL4-2060 Room, 127 Outlets • 5 Weeks - West First Floor - 26 + 15 = 41 Outlets • 2 Days Move In • 2 Days Move Out • 5 Weeks - West Second Floor - 27 + 16 = 43 Outlets • 2 Days Move In • 2 Days Move Out • 5 Weeks - West Third Floor - 21 + 22 = 43 Outlets • 2 Days Move In • 2 Days Move Out

  16. Network Cabling Selection • Infrastructure Constraints • Cabling Media • No need for dedicated phone lines • High performance optical fiber • Highest performance copper media • Category6 copper media to support 1 Gbps

  17. Copper Cabling Choices • Copper Evaluation • Criteria: size, performance, termination ease, reusability • Termination Hardware • Criteria: compatibility with existing hardware, performance, termination ease • Cable & Termination Hardware “Bake-Off” Planned • Final cabling media test in FL4

  18. Cabling Density vs Speed • The higher the speed of the copper cable, the larger the diameter size • Cost, infrastructure space, time to terminate • Should more total ports be installed with some at a lower speed or fewer ports at the highest speed? • Two 10+GigE ports vs one or two 10GigE plus one or two 1+GigE ports?

  19. Telecom Room Preparation Larger diameter cable, larger cable management Racks need to be moved New panels will have different density No need for telephone punch-down blocks

  20. Final Project Preparation • NCAB – Network media installed • Cabling/Termination Evaluation Schedule • Selection soon • Working with vendors for material delivery • Schedule discussion with FL4 occupants • Telecom Rooms demo/preparation • Infrastructure fixes
