Know Your IT Environment Before You Build
Good infrastructure decisions start with accurate information.
What this means for your organisation
Designs based on assumptions tend to fail in the same places: coverage gaps, power limits, cabling that is not where the plan says it is.
A site survey records what is actually there, so that upgrades, relocations and new installations are designed against facts.
What a survey covers
Network infrastructure
Documenting what is installed and how it is connected.
Wireless coverage
Measuring signal, interference and capacity across the building.
Cabling
Checking routes, condition, labelling and capacity.
Server rooms
Reviewing space, cooling, access and equipment layout.
Hardware
Recording age, specification and support status.
Connectivity
Assessing internet links, resilience and bandwidth.
Power requirements
Identifying supply, protection and capacity for current and planned equipment.
Physical layout
Understanding rooms, risers and building constraints that affect design.
Network equipment
Inventorying switches, routers, firewalls and access points.
Future capacity
Allowing for growth in people, devices and applications.
