- Main Building (5 Floors):
- The main building houses the central data center. This data center should include your router and your eight servers (both virtual and physical).
- The router is connected to two Wide Area Network (WAN) links, one primary 1GB fiber uplink to the CO, and one backup line.
- Each floor has a switch (5 in total for this building) connected via fiber to the data center.
- Multiple wireless access points (APs) can be distributed across each floor, connected to the switches.
- IP Phones and systems at desks are also connected to the switches on each floor.
- The Hosted PBX for the phone system is housed in the data center.
- The main building also includes onsite backups for the file server and physical servers.
- Second Building (4 Floors) and Third Building (5 Floors):
- These buildings also have switches on each floor (4 in the second building and 5 in the third), connected via the Ubiquity AirFiberHD24 bridges to the main building.
- IP phones and systems at desks are also connected to the switches on each floor in these buildings.
- Multiple wireless access points (APs) can be distributed across each floor, connected to the switches.
- General Infrastructure:
- All buildings have physical key-operated doors.
- Thirty-five security cameras are installed outside the buildings and are likely connected to a central security system within the data center in the main building.
- Databases are both in the cloud and physical (likely hosted on the servers in the data center).
- Employees have systems at their desks; there are 50 floating company laptops, 10 BYOD laptops, 50 iPads, and personal cell phones.
