9 Rogers Hall GPON Project 2017 Revised 4/6/2017 SCOPE OF WORK: Summary Retrofit existing cabling infrastructure in Rogers Hall with GPON cabling. This project will include: o New fiber optic backbone up the riser closets o One telecommunications room (217T) build out o Removal of existing wiring o Installation of new Single Mode fiber strand cables to each location o Installation of the ONT devices GENERAL NOTES: Only Zhone GPON equipment is allowed in order to retain compatibility with existing infrastructure, unless pre-approved by Owner. Qualified bidders will follow WSU requirements for fiber optic installation materials and methods. Work cannot begin before May 22, Substantial Completion must be achieved by August 1, DETAILED SCOPE OF WORK: Fiber Optic Risers Provide and install appropriately sized FDTs in the riser closets to provide MPO connectivity to the basement. FDT s will be provided on floors 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10 in the x17t rooms, in quantities/sizes necessary to complete the installation. FDTs will cable back to the ground floor via MPO cables and plug directly into the ifdh hub for distribution. The FDT s will serve as cross connection points between the floor it resides in and the adjacent floors. MDF Buildout Re-terminate SM fiber at Neill MCF and Rogers MDF to SC/APC from SC/UPC (24 strands, already in cassettes). Provide and install ifdh hub(s) as required to support the overall installation on the second floor MDF (217T). This will serve as the main cross connection terminal to each FDT. Provide and install 2x32 splitters in the ifdh. Projected as nine (9) for RF ONTs, and two (2) for WAP ONTs. Provide and install (1) 4 ft x 8 ft backboard on the wall for ifdh mounting. There are sufficient free strands of single mode fiber available to cross connect back to the OLT in Neill Hall MDF (there are at least 24 strands available, and it is estimated that 12 will be required). Station Cabling Provide and install appropriate quantity of single strand, single mode cables from each FDT to the station end. Each single mode cable will terminate into the wall mounted FDT serving the floor and on a SC/APC bulkhead mounted on a faceplate at the work station end. Provide and install category 6 cabling from the IDF to the wireless locations as

10 denoted by the drawings, including building exterior locations. Exterior locations may require penetration of the building envelope. For bidding purposes, assume that 80% of interior cabling can use existing surface mount raceway. Contractor will mount the OFCI wireless access points and ensure there is connectivity to the ONT in the IDF. ONT Acquisition All ONTs will be OFCI. Estimated counts are provided under the detailed scope of work titled ONT Installation below. The Contractor will verify station counts and service types and inform Owner of any variances so that the correct quantities and types will be ordered. ONT Installation Install ONTs to provide connectivity to each residence room, community space, and wireless access point. ONT types are as follows: o Zhone 2425 for internet and CATV connectivity in residential spaces and community spaces (e.g. lounges). These ONTs also require an RF attenuator of 20dB to be added during installation of each ONT. These RF attenuators will be OFCI. o Zhone 2624 for Dining Business offices on 1 st floor, RED office, Custodial office, Hall Desk. o Zhone 2624 for wireless access point connectivity. o Zhone 2424A for Door Access Control systems. For bidding purposes, assume the ONT counts provided below. Contractor will verify the ONT counts and inform Owner of any variances. o 275 Zhone 2425 for Resident Rooms & Lounges (connected to ResNet OLT, Neill MCF) o 9 Zhone 2624 for Dining Office spaces (connected to ITS OLT, Neill MCF) o 3 Zhone 2624 for ResHall office spaces and Custodial spaces (connected to ResNet OLT, Neill MCF) o 48 Zhone 2624 for Wireless Access Points (connected to ResNet OLT, Neill MCF) o 2 Zhone 2424A for Building Door Access Control in 217T and 1017T o 2 Zhone 2624 for spares o 4 Zhone 2425 for spares o 1 Zhone 2424A for spares Provide and install SC/APC jumpers to provide connectivity from the wall outlet to the ONT. Provide and install mounting brackets for ONTs Misc. Scope of Work Remove existing WAPs that will no longer be used. Any electric boxes remaining after removal of an existing WAP shall be covered by a blank plate, unless the box is to be reused for a new WAP. Exposed cables in the first floor laundry room and elsewhere in the building shall be installed in innerduct and strapped to the wall. ASSUMPTIONS OF SCOPE: All active equipment including, but not limited to, media converters, switches,

A Single has only a single desk and is generally a narrower room. Each desk also has a mounted desk lamp under the bookshelves. The Ethernet port is directly above either the right or left side desk, and underneath the desk lamp. The desk without Ethernet (in a double room) runs Ethernet cabling back across the room or uses wireless only.
