Quote Summary
Quote Details
This quote covers a comprehensive data rack cleanup and network infrastructure upgrade at the Berwick property.
Data Rack Organisation
Complete reorganisation of the garage data rack including professional cable management, removal of redundant equipment, and proper labelling of all connections for future serviceability.
Power Quality Solution
Installation of a UPS with power conditioning to address ongoing power quality issues. The unit is to be positioned in the rack below the current NVR location, providing clean power to all network equipment.
Network Streamlining
Removal of the old Telstra router (currently daisy-chained from Starlink, retained only for IP addresses). This streamlines the network path for improved performance and reduces unnecessary points of failure.
Thermal Management
Installation of cooling fans to the rack area to improve airflow and reduce heat buildup from networking equipment, extending equipment lifespan.
Testing & Review
Test the hardwired ethernet connection to the racing simulator setup. Review Foxtel distribution requirements and confirm if the system is still needed or can be decommissioned.
FTTP Coordination
Full management of Fibre to the Premises installation through Aussie Broadband. Straight Forward Technology handles the entire process including NBN liaison and meeting technicians onsite for installation.
