I understand that portion. I was just not sure if you wanted me to relay all of the information in the email from Mark Grady as a response to that question.

For the question about the fiber.

Here is the issue. There is fiber from building 21 to every IT closet. You currently are using one pair of the IT dark fiber (unused) that travels to the closets. Your equipment in the closet then is used to connect camera’s and door systems back to your office. The ability to add camera’s hinges on where the camera would be located in relation to the closet and if your equipment can support the additional number of camera’s or other devices you want to deploy. I do believe that you do not have the capacity on your equipment in building 21 to add any additional closet or building to the mix. This is not IT equipment and I only have the ability to visually look at it and have no way to determine the configuration or functionality of that equipment. I believe some of your outlying equipment has POE (power over ethernet) and some does not, this impacts what can be deployed.

Most have available ports, but the number of available ports per closet varies. Also, remember you must be within approximately 330 feet (total wire length) of the closet or you will require additional equipment/methods.

It appears that you are using fiber running to 25 of the 26 IT closets on the main campus. You do not have the capacity in building 21 to connect to the new CLC buildings once they come online.

We have either 6 or 12 pair run to each closet, IT uses 2 to 4 pair for every closet and the rest is reserved for capacity needs. Currently the police, Biomed, and engineering are using dark pairs in some of the closets. Biomed and engineering is mainly in the main building (and buildings 3/9/10/11), each group using a dark pair and the police is basically in every closet (minus 1).

Could you provide a map of the existing fiber network that notes how many fibers are available to be mailto:Mark.Grady@va.gov http://www.good.com/ used for the CCTV system.
