(Gary Kosar's initial estimate to be ready March 26.)
As large setups could last a couple of weeks, this area will need to be able to cool 20-30 computers, 4x19" CRT monitors, and 5 people.
Flooring will be either Anti-static ($4810.00) or regular VA ($1450.00) tile. (Halls and offices to be new carpeted flooring matching the current hallways.)
Drawn in green (existing) and purple (proposed) on the diagram, we would like to add to the current Wire-flex network tray. This extends it along the ceiling passing above the computer rack to the walls that each of the Workstation benchs are against.
At the lower left corner of the air duct, beside the shelving, there is
a standard 19" computer rack for the storage of rack mounted host spares.
Current choice in these type of racks is model
"MRK-4436" made by Middle Atlantic Products, Inc.
("http://www.middleatlantic.com/enclosure/gang/mrkg.htm")
Vendor: NEDCO,
Sales contact: Don Malacoff.
The communication racks (drawn in red) are already existing items that are remenants of a former wire closet. They cannot be moved more than a couple of feet in either direction due to the existing building communication wiring they must be connected to.
See page 14-17 of the Emerson Storage Solutions "Commercial Products Solutions Guide" for examples and list pricing of the shelving I'm referring to here.

The following shelving units are 5 shelves (72") high.

They are similar in design to this smaller unit
having:
Cost (from quote number: 000454) would be $5053.95 Cdn per bench.
Compressed air line from the building supply is to be located at the end of "Work Station 1" beside the door.
We will also want 4-6 standard office chairs for inside this lab.
NEED information from Jennifer Keir
or Debbie Brown on what chairs we
ordered from what vendor for new people.
Pair of 8 port NetGear for each cart, cost $1,800.00 (8 x $225.00)

The existing network equipment (Extreme Alpine 3808 chasis) is quite loud (need DB reading) and may affect the ability of working for prolonged priodes at the workbenches. It would require five of the quieter 1u 48 port switches to replace it at a cost of ~$25,000.00 (four times $5,000)
It is ok to use the new DC 2575 as a person's office as long as we keep a clean line of sight from it's door to the lab exit door(s).
