Vendor access
This part is for Aigna staff
Vendors see their own installation and the device reference they need to build it: device types, setup guides and models. Everything else stays with Aigna.

UniFi standardCabinet A and Cabinet B, each with Shelf 1 to 3, a bottom shelf and a drawer. For an office that holds its spares for one floor. How new and refreshed comms rooms are built. There is no standard rack: each comms room is sized for the spaces it serves (how), and older network kit is replaced in the network refresh.
How a comms room is sized
From the spaces it serves to the rack that holds it. House rules where public standards leave the figure to the designer; unknowns stay unknown.
- 1Data outletsOne per data outlet in every space served, from the space type's outlets; a repeated space (desks) counts each desk.The space types
- 2Headroom20 percent spare access ports above the outlets, rounded up, so a floor can add spaces without a new switch.House rule. Structured cabling guides plan for spare capacity; TIA-568 sets no figure.
- 3Access switchesPorts with headroom divided by the ports on the standard access switch, rounded up.The standard's access switch
- 4Patch panelsOne 48-port panel per 48 outlets, rounded up, each with a cable manager.House rule (Panduit 48-port panels, 2U)
- 5PoE budgetThe sum of what each PoE-powered device draws, as its vendor states (its PoE class where there is no figure). Devices with no figure are counted, not guessed.The device models
- 6Rack spaceThe units the parts take, plus 25 percent free for growth, rounded up to the next rack size (12U, 24U or 42U).House rule
- 7UPSNot sized yet: the load and runtime are not recorded. The UPS in the standard is stated per rack.Monitoring, when connected
Each comms room page shows its own figures against what is installed: how they compare.
How the comms rooms compare
0 of 10 spaces on the UniFi standard · 0 short of what they servePorts and rack are what the room has against what the rooms it serves need (the sizing method above). A comms room is on the standard when every switch, gateway and controller in its rack is UniFi; the AV switch stays Netgear AV Line (tested for Dante and Q-SYS). Point at a space to see its older kit.
