[QUOTE="Rob Timmerman, post: 209240, member: 172"] Most of the highlighted issues relate to how the infrastructure is used maintained, and there's not much that can be done there to improve things from a design perspective. Intelligent placement of the access points can help matters, though. I'd also be tempted to enforce a limit of 180 degrees total bend between pull points (as required by TIA/EIA standards for data cabling, vs. the 360 degrees between pull points allowed by the NEC). I'd also be tempted to review what currently gets run between stage and FoH, as it may be cost-effective to provide enough installed copper to reduce the amount the main pipes get used (I'm thinking a couple 1" pipes with some Cat6 dry lines and a couple of whatever your regional standard is for power between feeder and edison (think L21-30 or California). Maybe some fiber as well. The extra cost shouldn't be too bad, as the trenching cost is effectively fixed and the cost of the small-diameter conduit and Cat 6 is pretty low) [/QUOTE]
