3 PLANNING
When completing the Planning phase for a site installation, consider the items listed below. There
may also be other, site-specific considerations to take into account.
When planning the installation, ensure:
• Engineering drawings: Engineering drawings have been received and are available, and that they
include schematics and proposed layouts.
• Installation standards: Follow site-wide standards for cabling all Access Points ie all devices use
the same ports for power and/or Ethernet connectors.
• Infrastructure hardware labelling: Follow the hardware labelling conventions outlined in the
project Detailed Design document (supplied by Minetec), summarised below.
3.1 Infrastructure hardware labelling
It is recommended to use the following labelling convention for hardware:
X.Y.Z, where:
X = Hardware device
Y = Level or area code
Z = Incremental numbering of the specific device type with increments starting at 1 on each level
Example: If a Minetec Access point was mounted underground on level 301 and was the first access
point, the label would be: A.301.1.
