ADC PROFESSIONAL SERVICES ADC Engineering Services for Network Planning and Deployment Enhance service delivery Reduce complexity Reduce costs Streamline next-generation network evolution ENGINEERING SERVICES Every operator knows that a well-planned network makes for reduced complexity, lower costs and fewer service issues. Unfortunately, the reality is that many operators have fewer resources dedicated to network planning and design. With new network equipment options, new transmission and transport alternatives and increased service demands, engineering decisions are becoming increasingly complex. At ADC, we have a unique solution for engineering services, based on these main foundations: • We’re experienced in wireline, wireless and cable networks • We engineer and install equipment from more than 60 different vendors • We incorporate industry, network equipment manufacturer and carrier standards into our planning-and-engineering approach and documentation • We support legacy and next-generation network needs • We never stop learning Working with operators of wireline, wireless and cable networks allows ADC to deliver superior engineering services for all types of network projects. We leverage our expertise to ensure that the best-possible engineering is provided regardless of network type or service, and to ensure our engineering helps set the foundation for successful deployment projects. Our range of experience includes circuit-switched, packet-switched, circuit-to-packet migration, and advanced network technology adoption, for environments that include: • Central offices and remote sites • Headend and hub sites • Mobile switching offices and base stations • Remote sites • Data centers ADC Engineering Services for Successful Deployments ADC installs equipment from more than 60 different network equipment manufacturers, which gives us great visibility into how elements perform together in all types of network configurations. Our multivendor, multitechnology, multiservice approach stands out as one of the chief reasons that service providers choose ADC. Working with a wide range of equipment manufacturers, network operators and technology partners gives us an enormous breadth of experience. We integrate our unique expertise into both planning and engineering to provide our customers with the best-possible results. Lastly, our engineers are trained following industry-best practices. Using our new Network Integration Center, this training extends to the newest of technologies being explored to help operators deliver services faster while reducing complexity and costs. The result is an engineering process that incorporates the best networking technologies, the most reliable specifications and the greatest insight possible into advanced network development to resolve operational issues that include: • Underutilization of network capacity • Underutilization of equipment and facilities • Inaccurate or out-of-date records • Deployment delays due to lack of complete engineering information or missing materials ADC’s design engineering services provide practical designs for transmission networks, based on our unique expertise. These include designs for: • Transmit and receive path • Baseband and optical • Signal grooming • Capacity planning • Ironwork and cable rack • Network growth For each project, we complete an Engineering Design Package (EDP)—a comprehensive engineering document that includes site-specific details such as: • Network diagrams • Job information • Site directions • Customer deliverables • Task list/installation notes Diagrams for: • Cable racks • Fiber raceways • Power and grounding • Top and bottom supports • Bay layouts • Shelf layouts • Signal flow/fiber runs • Cabling • Timing • Parallel telemetry/alarm wiring • Commissioning/provisioning sheets • Test data sheets • Equipment lists • Survey sheets We also provide an installation package that includes: • Material lists • Cable running diagrams • Rack and shelf configuration • External cabling configurations • Interconnection tables • Site-specific EDP information • Firm price quotes based on a detailed scope of work • Order writing • Equipment engineering • Assignment records and database updates, including front equipment drawings ENGINEERING SERVICES ADC Telecommunications, Inc., P.O.
