Nile Deployment Readiness Template
43 min
overview the document outlines a comprehensive checklist for site readiness and configuration readiness, especially focusing on it closet infrastructure site readiness it provides detailed recommendations regarding closet size, construction materials, cooling requirements, power specifications, and rack installations to ensure optimal operations the checklist includes various closet sizes suitable for different areas, emphasizes a robust cooling system with specific temperature and humidity controls, and mandates dual redundant power setups additionally, it details requirements for power distribution and rack configurations, ensuring adequate airflow and grounding cabling considerations emphasize the installation of high quality cables, termination standards, and maintaining clean and accessible cable trays migration and configuration readiness migration and configuration readiness checklist provides details processes and comprehensive network design it also includes necessary information for settings such as dhcp and wireless ssid configurations, along with supported firewall vendors ultimately, these guidelines aim to facilitate a functional and efficient it environment ready for nile access service deployment site readiness it infrastructure checklist closet please consider physical environment, functional space and other considerations to right size closet area you may refer to the industry standard recomendations such as https //www bicsi org/standards/available standards store/single purchase for right sizing the closet closet size closet size of 5’x7’ feet to serve up to 5,000 sq ft closet size of 6’x9’ feet to serve up to 10,000 sq ft closet size of 8’x12’ feet to serve up to 20,000 sq ft closet room construction material interior walls insulated steel frame with gypsum board floor 4 inch concrete slab ceiling ½ inch acoustic tiles exterior walls insulated concrete with foam sheathing closet cooling dedicated cooling high efficiency

3 ton = 36,000 btuh = 10 kw room temperature range maintained (72–80°f) room humidity maintained at 50% cooling type house air exhaust fan rack cooler mini split ceiling split airflow clearance

clean and well regulated power source pure sine wave output ups selected to ensure the ups provides a pure sine wave output (not simulated or approximated) avoid stepped approximation or simulated sine wave ups ( do not use "stepped approximation" or "simulated sinewave" ups models, as they can cause instability or equipment malfunction ) ups capacity matches nsb power requirements ( confirm the ups is rated for the full load of the nsb installation, including any poe powered devices ) ups runtime supports graceful shutdown or failover ( ensure the backup power duration meets operational needs or failover time thresholds ) regular ups health check scheduled (add periodic checks to verify battery health and proper waveform output ) battery backup for 4 to 10 minutes backup generator available power redundancy c entralized d istributed power distribution high quality pdu installed data center power products include upgradeable power distribution units, inline power meters, transfer switches and monitoring sensors inline power meters present transfer switches <10 ms transfer time monitoring sensors installed single/redundant power strips used racks 4 post racks ( standard 19” equipment front panel, 18 – 5/16” center to center, 17 3/4th minimum opening) installed 2 post rack used where applicable (45u) rack is grounded using ground lug if the rack is not grounded or cannot be grounded, the switch is grounded directly by means of the provided ground lug 4 feet distance maintained between racks in multi rack install to prevent switches/head ends (he)
