BT Openreach were on site yesterday to install the B-Side of our 100Mbit fibre connection to Virgin Media.
The fibre installation at our end went smoothly, and Openreach have left a loop connector in place so they can begin loopback testing from the A-Side (at Virgin Media / Telewest / NTL).
Elsewhere on site more raised access floor has been layed, and more wiring for emergency lights, CCTV and security has been installed.
Pics to follow soon!!
Another milestone passed! The computer room is on it’s own lighting and power circuits! All the temporary lights and sockets have now been removed, and the final lighting grid (complete with emergency bulkheads) are in place. The decorating is (nearly) complete – just the touch-ups left to do where people have been unkind enough to drill holes for wires and the like ;-)

Less than a month after construction started, the final plastering has been completed and the decoration has started throughout. Elsewhere Openreach have been in to terminate the 10-pair copper which will be used for phone lines, DSL, and the redundant access services. The access-control controller boxes are being configured, and finally the 2nd fix electrics in the office are now going in.
This week promises to be a milestone in the project – not only will Friday be the one-month-marker, but the raised floor is due on site. Before the end of the Bank Holiday we hope to have the raised floor in place where racks 1 and 2 will go, so Openreach and Telewest can come in and terminate the fibre from next week.
