Solution
Data Center Switching Build
Top of rack aggregation and optics delivered as complete rack kits
Rack builds move at the pace of the slowest line item. Shipping the switch without the optics or the rails simply moves the delay to the cabinet.
Process
The Six Steps We Work Through
-
01
Topology Confirmation
Uplink counts speeds and fibre types confirmed against the actual plant
-
02
Optics Matching
Transceivers coded for the platform with reach and wavelength verified
-
03
Rack Kit Definition
Switch optics rails and cabling defined as one shippable kit per cabinet
-
04
Batch Consistency
Optics supplied in consistent batches so link budgets behave the same
-
05
Phased Release
Kits released as cabinets become ready rather than all at once
-
06
Spares Pool
A held pool against the deployed part numbers for same day replacement

FAQ
Data Center Switching Build Questions
Where Does This Process Start
At the bill of materials rather than at the purchase order. Most of the value is in what gets caught before anything is committed.
How Long Does the Review Take
A straightforward list is reviewed within a working day. Programmes with licence tiers and long lead items may take two.
What If a Line Is Discontinued
We say so and propose the successor or an equivalent with the differences stated plainly rather than substituting quietly.
Can Deliveries Be Staged
Yes. Staging against your programme calendar is normal on multi site work and avoids paying to store hardware you cannot install yet.
Do You Provide Documentation for Audit
Yes. Serial lists commercial invoices packing lists and certificate packs in the format your client or auditor requires.
Is There a Minimum Project Size
No. The same review applies to a single unit and to a multi wave programme although the staging and forecasting elements only matter at scale.
