Staging, rack and stack, cabling oversight, configuration and cutover, rehearsed before we arrive and validated before we leave.

## What a deployment includes

Six things, each owned by the engineer who designed the network.

- ### Staging & configuration
  
  Every switch, gateway and AP configured, updated and labeled in our lab before it ships. Nothing is configured for the first time on your floor.
- ### Rack & stack
  
  MDF and IDF builds to the design: rails, cable management, power and labeling, photographed before we leave the room.
- ### Cabling oversight
  
  Our engineers scope and inspect the structured cabling (Cat6A, fiber, terminations and test results), whether we pull it or your contractor does.
- ### Cutover
  
  A rehearsed plan with a rollback path, run in a window you choose. The legacy network stays live until the new one proves itself.
- ### Validation
  
  Every port, VLAN, SSID and uplink tested against the design, with throughput and failover measured.
- ### Handoff & documentation
  
  As-built diagrams, port maps and credentials in your vault, with a walkthrough for your team. You run it from day one.

## Our process

Stage, install, cut over, hand off.

1. 01
   
   ### Stage
   
   Configuration, firmware and labels done in our lab. Each device ships tested and tagged to its rack position.
2. 02
   
   ### Install
   
   Racks built to the design, cabling inspected and certified, power and uplinks verified before anything goes live.
3. 03
   
   ### Cut over
   
   A rehearsed window with a rollback path. Legacy stays up until every VLAN, SSID and uplink is proven on the new network.
4. 04
   
   ### Hand off
   
   As-builts, port maps and credentials handed to your team with a walkthrough. Support continues through TAC.
