Hello, I work for a regional ISP/CLEC who plans to begin deploying voice and data in one of our local markets. We are currently commissioning a MetaSwitch and plan to use Adtran Total Access 900 series IADs at the customer prem. The transport from our switch to the IAD will be VoIP, but hand off to the customer will be POTS/T1/PRI.
We figure site surveys will save us a lot of headache at install time and am looking for some advice as I build up our site survey form.
Here is what I have so far:
Location of ILEC's demarc,phone system, data network and any existing cabling between these points.
Location, make, model, support contact of equipment such as phone system, fax machine, credit card processors, automatic teller machine, postage machine, house arrest monitor, check verification system, non-phone system multiline phones.
Deployment requirements for Adtran CPE (location, wall/rack mount, power connection, etc).
These are the things I think about from problems I have ran into as the installer in other deployments and try to head off future issues.
Thanks for your comments and advice!
