- 19. PricewaterhouseCoopers Directorate General of Systems & Data Management 19 Slide 19 Specifications of Communication Room • A communication room needs to be identified at each building where the WAN / LAN equipment will be installed. • Size of communication room: A room of size at least 6’ x 6’ would generally be sufficient for the purpose. However, for Category A sites and sites where a floor mounted rack will also be needed for LAN, a larger room of size up to 8’ x 6’ may be required. In case the ceiling is higher than 8’ the AC requirement may have to be assessed accordingly.
- 20. PricewaterhouseCoopers Directorate General of Systems & Data Management 20 Slide 20 Specifications of Communication Room Formation Suggested Communication room Customs Server room housing the ICES servers Central Excise Room housing the SERMON servers DRI Room presently housing the communication routers Other Formations Air conditioned room housing PC’s or servers If no separate room is available The room of AC / JC A dedicated room is preferred for the purpose. However, in case a dedicated room of appropriate size is not available then following rooms may be used, provided sufficient space is available for accommodating the required equipment. As an exceptional scenario, if no room is available at all, then a segregated area in the common hall/room should be designated as the WAN / LAN point. Care is to be exercised to ensure that sufficient area is delimited in order to securely accommodate the required installation.
- 21. PricewaterhouseCoopers Directorate General of Systems & Data Management 21 Slide 21 Attributes of Communication Room • Should be so chosen that it has at least one suitable brick wall space available where required equipment can be mounted. The equipment should preferably not be located near a window. • The wall should not be the outer wall of the building or a wall common with toilet / water storage to minimize the chances of water seepage in future. • Only if suitable brick wall is not available then a table of minimum size 2.5’ x 2.5’ is required to be provided for rack installation. The table should be firm wooden or steel table with a minimum load bearing capacity of 80 kgs. • The communication room should have UPS power points (of rating 1 KVA or above) and proper earthing for WAN equipment. In case UPS of rating 1 KVA or more is not available then it should be procured locally. • The communication room should be air conditioned. The equipment is required to be maintained in a dust free environment and at an ambient temperature of 25 deg Centigrade round the clock. • Any UPS of over 1 KVA should preferably not be kept in the communication room on account of the heat generation. In case the battery pack is a separate unit, the UPS may be kept inside the Communication room while the battery pack kept outside in a ventilated area. In case the UPS is a rack mountable compact unit and a separate space cannot be provided, a minimum distance of 2’ be maintained from the communication equipment.
- 22. PricewaterhouseCoopers Directorate General of Systems & Data Management 22 Slide 22 WAN Equipment • The WAN equipment will be installed in one 9U size rack in all Category B, C and D WAN sites. The size of the rack is 2’ x 2’ x 2’. • In case of Category A sites BSNL will install following additional equipment for providing fiber connectivity. The exact configuration will differ depending on local practice and availability of type of equipment with the BSNL: i. A separate rack for Multiplexer which may be wall mounted or floor mounted (Max size – 3’ x 1’, height - 6’). ii. A Cable locker which will be wall mounted( Max size – 4’ x 6’, depth – 6”). iii. A small wall mounted terminal box less than 1’ x 1’ in size.
- 23. PricewaterhouseCoopers Directorate General of Systems & Data Management 23 Slide 23 LAN Equipment • The size of LAN equipment will be decided by the number of users in the site. • At small sites with less than 24 users only one switch will be required which may be installed inside the WAN rack itself. • At sites with larger number of users a floor mounted rack will be used which will house the multiple switches. • At very large sites, LAN for each office may be terminated locally while only one cable runs between the office and the communication room.`
