Brown University, Providence, RIOutside Plant (OSP) designs connecting the "new" Barys & Holley Engineering Building to the MacMillan Hall. This OSP design will provide a 36 multi-mode/12 single-mode fiber optic cable for data networking, security, CATV and video conferencing and a 200 pair copper cable for voice transmission. Bryant University New Dormitory and Technology Deployment Study, Smithfield, RIBryant University has been recognized by numerous authorities for their technological innovation and the ubiquitous access to network services afforded to students, faculty, and surrounding communities. Before designing the technology infrastructure for a new 200 bed dormitory, we were retained to examine the University's business and technology plans to determine if Bryant was making wise use of available funding as regards to their converged technology implementation strategies. Technologies included in our study were VoiP, wireless networks, IP video, LAN mobile radio integration, IP video security, audio/visual streaming media storage, IP video conferencing, synchronous and asynchronous distance learning, digital signage, video on demand (VoD), internet radio, digital TV broadcasting, virtual private networks, IP-based AV management, Wi-Fi/cell phone convergence, IP-based lighting and HVAC controls, physical access security, GIS, and homeland security initiatives. Connecticut State University System, ConnecticutWorking with the Connecticut State Department of Public Works we developed a statewide telecommunications infrastructure master plan for the Connecticut State University System (CSUS). The master specification was developed to promote a consistent implementation of technology throughout the CSU system. Developmental guidelines were derived from BICSI, AIA, CSI and ANSI/TIA/EIA recommended best practices. Florida Institute of Technology, Life Sciences Building, Melbourne, FLFIT's 38,000 SF Life Sciences Building laboratories include animal physiology, molluscan biology, neurobiology, and infectious disease research to name a few. Telephone, computer, networks, radio, microwave, CATV, video, and distance learning communication systems were included in the design. Florida Institute of Technology, Advanced Engineering Complex, Melbourne, FLThe 67,000 SF engineering complex laboratories include dynamic systems, robotic controls, CAD/CAM, high performance graphics, graphics and image processing, infrastructure systems, multi-media instructional, and other high tech laboratories. Telephone, computer, networks, radio, microwave, CATV, video, and distance learning communication systems were included in the design. Massachusetts Institute of Technology (Baker House), Cambridge MAThe renovation of the architecturally significant 137,000 SF Baker House dormitory was designed to provide students with maximum configuration flexibility for contemporary voice, data, and power requirements in support of advanced communications. Massachusetts General Hospital Institute for Healthcare Professionals, Boston, MALocated in Boston's Historic Waterfront adjacent to the Charlestown Navy Shipyard, the centuries old granite building would house a graduate school for healthcare professionals. The exposed ceilings, large wooden beams and granite walls presented a challenge in esthetically routing communication lines in this data intensive environment. Wireless network technologies were also deployed. Rollins College, Crummer Business School, Orlando, FLDesign development of voice and data network infrastructure responsive to the rapid incorporation of computers into the teaching and learning processes. The design included the physical cabling infrastructure, the equipment necessary to operate the network, and several virtual classroom facilities. Southern Connecticut State University, New Haven, CTThis "fast track" project called for design services that included the coordination and relocation of inter-building communications cabling for the east and west campuses of the University and service provider cabling connections to the "central" office of Southern New England Telephone. The master plan of the university called for Engleman Hall on the east campus to have both renovations to all systems and the addition of approximately 65,000 SF of space. This facility provided the central point for campus communications including life safety and also serves as the Central Collapse Point for both the Metropolitan Area Network (MAP) and the state education Wide Area Network (WAN) for data services for both students and faculty. State University of West Georgia, Carrollton, GAThe 3-story, 110,000 SF 'Technology Enhanced Learning Center' provides facilities for the History, Chemistry, Philosophy, English, Computer Science, and Physics departments. The communications infrastructure was designed to be responsive to the rapid incorporation of computers into the classroom. The design included the physical cabling infrastructure, the equipment necessary to operate the network, and several virtual classroom facilities. University of New Hampshire, Durham, NHMaster planning design services for the study of the telecommunications distribution design in order to provide a basis for cost effective growth, planning and future implementation and improvements. The study identifies existing systems, plans future growth, and analyzes requirements for telephone, computer, networks, radio, microwave, CATV, satellite, and other communication systems pertinent to the telecommunications distribution system. University of Maine, Engineering & Science Building, Orono, MECommunication technologies design services for the 70,000 SF, 5-story Engineering and Science building. A conceptual report was developed for this facility. The project highlights include Class 1000 Clean Room for micro-electronic R&D chemical labs, spectroscopy, microscopy, sensor development, computational labs, super computer room, wind tunnel and non-destructive testing lab. Lab fume exhaust systems, RO & DI water systems, lab gases, etc. will be provided with new utility infrastructure for the building. |
