Description
Within Lucent Technologies’ overall Engineering Services portfolio, Site Survey, Basic
Equipment Engineering, Site Engineering, and Site Records are the four services most
closely linked to the initial deployment of Metropolis
®
AMU into your network; each
is described below.
Site Survey
A Site Survey may be required to collect your site requirements needed for proper
equipment engineering. If adequate site requirements and records are not available up
front, a site survey would be performed to collect information required for
configuration of the equipment and integration of the equipment into the site.
Basic Equipment Engineering
Ensures that the correct footprint hardware is ordered and that the ordered equipment is
configured for optimal performance in the network for the customer. Lucent
Technologies Engineering configures equipment requirements based on inputs from the
customer order, completed questionnaires, and/or site survey data. The decisions as to
specific equipment needs are based on each component’s functionality and capacity,
and the application of engineering rules associated with each component.
Site Engineering
Ensures that the correct site material is ordered and that the optimal equipment layout
for the installation of the ordered equipment in the customer’s site is determined. Site
Engineering will be used in assisting the customer with determining the necessary site
conditions, layout and equipment required to properly install/integrate the footprint
hardware components into a specific location.
Site Records
Site Records Service provides detailed record keeping which accurately documents the
physical placement and configuration of specified customer equipment. Depending on
the customer request, this can involve the initial creation of site records, updating of
existing records, or ongoing maintenance of the customer’s records.
