Diverse Routes

One area many companies over look is diverse routing as a way to protect voice and data traffic. The best time for this is when designing the building during the architect negotiation. Why? because long term this phase will save money on construction if needed later in the building longetivity. Once the floor space is designed changes cost money and second entrances for conduct and cable are only one
aspect. Floor space is also a consideration. Where will the second entrance go in terms of firewalls, conduct runs, floor space costs, etc.? Is the a multi or single tenant building? Is the industry expanding to static? Are new employees being added to drain existing services? Long term strategy is needed and a vision for the future.
