Frequently Asked Questions
Can live trading floors remain operational during cabling?
Yes. Work is planned in micro‑windows, desks are migrated row‑by‑row with dual NICs bridging old and new drops. Zero‑impact rehearsals prove stability before cut‑over.
Will we need new switches?
If current hardware tops out at 1 Gbps, upgrades are recommended to leverage Cat 6A benefits. ACCL provides ROI modelling and can stage switch swaps floor‑by‑floor.
How long for a 1,000‑seat office?
Typical schedule: two‑week survey, three‑week design, six “power weekends” for installation and two weekends for cabinet migrations.
What warranties apply?
25‑year application warranties from Excel, Leviton, Molex or chosen vendor cover performance and parts, transferrable if the building changes leaseholder.
Does ACCL provide ongoing monitoring?
Yes. Optional SNMP‑based monitoring and quarterly cabinet audits keep infrastructure in optimal health and alert facilities teams to thermal anomalies.
