Conducting a Site Survey

Does anyone where I can find a site survey checklist for installing a network infrastructure?

I'm looking for something to document when assessing a new office location to setup a network for a small business.

I have jotted down a few of the important things that need to be considered for setting up a network infrastructure.

The following questions must be answered regarding installation site readiness:

1. Are there any special site considerations (this can include using specific building entrances,

security check points, reception desks, etc)

2. Are all the original console and auxiliary cables, interface adaptors and rack mounting hardware

available if necessary?

3. Where is the equipment physically being installed? In a rack or on a table?

4. Is the necessary power available?

5. Is the WAN circuit installed and connection ready for the installation (i.e. - CSU/DSU installed

and configured, frame-relay active, etc.)?

6. Is the LAN connection available and ready for installation?

7. Is there an analog phone line within 50 feet of the installation location for dial up access?

8. Are the cables you have received of the correct length and presentation for the LAN and WAN

connectivity for your site?

9. Have the relevant TELCO lines been installed and working?
