2 Vision + Knowledge = Control Challenges Bandwidth Robustness Reliability Redundancy Security Manageability Maintainability Network Support, Management and Monitoring To secure the information needed to run your network in fact, to run your business network connections in every part of the organization must be constantly monitored and managed. With business environments constantly changing, it can be an uphill struggle to stay on top of the demands. Is your physical layer a blind spot, or do you have the vision to detect changes as they happen? Do the tools you use today give you the knowledge you need? Are you in control of your network infrastructure? Honestly? How many hours are consumed chasing down the unknown? Can you report switch capacity accurately? Are you in compliance? Can you prove it? Do even simple changes cause downtime? How quickly can you recover? How much does it cost to do an annual audit? Do you even know? Do you survive on manual processes? Are they working? Is there a better way? The Demand for Intelligence In the world of network infrastructure, nothing stands still. IP Convergence is a reality. Gone are the days of separate voice and data networks. Video and other content-rich traffic will also share the same infrastructure, as will intelligent building control devices. Your network is now truly a fourth utility. It has to work 24 hours a day, seven days a week, whether anyone is in the office or not. Maintenance windows are shorter than ever before, so any change to the network must be made quickly and accurately it has to be right the first time, every time. Consolidation also drives the need for quick, accurate changes along with more effective planning tools. As more computing power and storage is concentrated in mission-critical data centers, reliability, availability and security become paramount. Productivity must be greatly increased to meet the ever-expanding demands on IT operations personnel. Without the right tools, IT professionals will not be able to keep up with the networks they must control. CommScope understands your world and the challenges you face. We know you need a high degree of intelligence in order to do your job well. As technology and demands for connectivity continue to spiral, the demand is for more intelligence, faster. With SYSTIMAX Intelligent Infrastructure Solutions, your physical layer is more than a reliable, high performance communications foundation it gives you the VISION and KNOWLEDGE you need to be in CONTROL. Are you ready to take control? Intelligent Infrastructure Solutions 2
3 The Convergence Trend To meet the demand for intelligence, an expanding number of networks are moving toward IP convergence. Convergence eases the strain of managing multiple systems and a complex network. Bringing video, data, voice, wireless, factory controls, building controls, building devices and factory devices into one IP network will continue into the foreseeable future. Convergence brings with it a host of opportunities. Since building systems are linked, operations can be taken to a new level of efficiency. Maintenance becomes simpler and productivity more effective. With real-time reports and monitoring, convergence makes record keeping and decision making manageable. However, convergence also has its challenges. When you bring systems together, you want to retain a comfortable level of robustness, reliability and manageability. Bandwidth and security demands have to be met. How can you ensure that bringing your systems into one IP will succeed? The trend is toward convergence. The demand is for intelligence. You need a solution that can provide both while also overcoming the challenges and easing the demands on your time and resources.

Security Unauthorized Access Know in real-time when and where an unauthorized access occurred, down to the office or cubicle. Switch Port Control Ensure that all necessary physical connections are correctly in place before enabling switch ports. Rogue Asset Location You have systems that can determine whether you have computers infected with malicious software or unauthorized wireless access points or other devices connected to your network. Now you can find out exactly where these assets are physically located as well. Intelligent Infrastructure Solutions 4 Change Management Automated Documentation Eliminate documentation errors as well as the need to update patch connections in a spreadsheet or other manual system. Improved Planning Increase your understanding of existing capacity. Intelligent Infrastructure Solutions augment the infrastructure view provided by switch/router planning tools. Increased Service Availability Decrease the chance of impacting critical services during moves, adds and changes (MACs). Accurate documentation decreases cycle time, allowing you to skip the step of documenting what you have done. Intelligent Infrastructure Solutions also decrease rework, since guided patching ensures MAC work is performed right the first time. Availability Troubleshooting Check the last known location of devices you can no longer communicate with. Determine whether unplanned changes have been made to the physical infrastructure. Critical Circuit Notification Improve your response time and service availability by receiving notification when critical circuits are about to be impacted. Guided Patching Ensure the right connectivity changes are made, efficiently and on time, alleviating the possibility of unplanned downtime.
5 Compliance Control Activities In order to comply with industry best practices, all internal control activities, such as connectivity change management, should be automated wherever possible. Audit Trails Know who authorized connectivity changes and when the work was performed. Unplanned Changes Determine whether unplanned changes have been made to physical layer connections. Physical Location Asset Tracking Track IP devices as they are moved within an office building or data center. Auditing When it comes time for the annual IT audit, you will know where your assets are physically located. Tracing View the physical layer path from a switch port all the way to an IP endpoint. User Location Enable call centers or help desks to lend support by finding the nearest resource for a user (such as a printer), or by dispatching a technician to fix a device. Ideal Environments Emergency Response Aid emergency response authorities in finding a person in need when VoIP is used to call an internal or external emergency number. Intelligent Infrastructure Solutions fit to your network needs, no matter your environment. These solutions are a perfect fit for: Data Centers Workplace/Enterprise IT Intelligent Buildings Healthcare Facilities Financial Institutions Educational Institutions Productivity Automation Spend less time documenting your infrastructure and tracking down the precise location of assets. MAC Cycle Time Reduce the time needed for move, add, change work with guided patching and automated documentation. Avoid Rework Plan your MAC work and use guided patching to ensure your work is performed correctly the first time. Capacity Planning Increase the utilization of existing resources through an improved understanding of unused capacity. 5

8 Case Study With electronic work orders and guided patching, trusted teaching assistants could perform work normally done by expensive and overworked IT personnel, saving time and operational costs. An Intelligent Infrastructure empowers the IT department Large campus environments are difficult to manage. Spread out over a large area with dozens of buildings, IT managers can spend hours a day just traveling between buildings to make connectivity changes. Having to know how every building s telecom room is configured makes it even more challenging to do it right the first time. Students depend on fully networked classrooms, and it is critical to minimize any unforeseen network outages. By deploying an Intelligent Infrastructure, one college was able to reduce by 30% the time it took to troubleshoot network outages because they could monitor network connectivity in real-time, seeing any changes as they occurred and being informed if any of them were unplanned. By automatically discovering the physical location of IT assets, they spent 50% less time tracking down specific computers, printers and IP phones. With electronic work orders, they were able to reduce by 60% the time it took to do moves, adds and changes ensuring they were done right the first time, every time. They could also get trusted teaching assistants to make the changes, reducing the need to send out expensive IT management personnel. give you the Vision and Knowledge you need to Control your network. It also reduces your operational costs for far-flung campus environments. SYSTIMAX Intelligent Infrastructure Solutions bring operational efficiency. 8
9 Case Study Accurate Change Management No matter how sophisticated or reliable a network infrastructure gets, there still remains the capacity for human error. Given the escalating demand placed on IT personnel, that capacity for error becomes greater with every technology surge. The ideal network world would be a system that meets or exceeds all needs, combined with a team that never makes a mistake. One company knew just how costly human error could become. Their Dynamic Managed Services Data Center used 100% manual processes built on applications like Microsoft Visio, PowerPoint and Excel. When a manual server provisioning process was carried out, it took 15 days to complete, and documentation was found to be inaccurate 60% of the time. Inaccurate data not only caused deployment times to skyrocket, but they had several incidents where existing customers accidentally had their circuits disconnected. Additionally, billing was problematic, as they did not necessarily know which ports were being used by which customers. The company decided to incorporate intelligence into their infrastructure by deploying ipatch hardware and software. The key driver was their desire to greatly improve the efficiency of the IT staff and their overall productivity in the data center. They expect to reduce connectivity errors by at least 90% and server deployment cycle time by 50% to 75%. give you the Vision and Knowledge you need to Control your network. They also bring you exacting accuracy. SYSTIMAX Intelligent Infrastructure Solutions bring exacting accuracy. With an accurate, up-to-date record of the connectivity in the data center, one company believes they can reduce their error rate from 60% to near zero, helping to eliminate significant rework, delays in providing services and accidental disconnets of existing customers. 9
10 Application Note With the added vision given by SYSTIMAX Intelligent Infrastructure Solutions, an extra dimension of aid is available for emergency situations. Enterprises must be prepared to handle emergencies effectively. However, 60 million Americans go to work each day without the same level of protection they get at home for emergency response. Dial 911 from an IP phone, and too often the operator will have only limited information with respect to your location, and no way to contact you if the call is disrupted. One company installed ipatch into their infrastructure because of the productivity improvements its Vision, Knowledge and Control brought to their network. However, no one initially anticipated how valuable it would be in an emergency situation. Because an intelligent infrastructure tracks devices, including IP phones, as their connectivity changes, ipatch always has an up-to-date view of their exact physical location. When an employee was having a medical emergency late one evening, she called 911. The call was bridged to a corporate security officer along with the 911 operator. On the corporate security officer s IP phone, information related to the caller was immediately displayed, including the caller s name and extension. With the integration of ipatch hardware and software, the system was also able to display the exact physical location of the caller, including the building address, floor number, office number even down to the jack number on the wall. With this information, the corporate security officer was able to pull up the building floor plan in the ipatch System Manager software and determine the quickest way to reach the employee. He was able to provide explicit directions to the incoming emergency response personnel, greatly improving the odds that help would arrive in time. give you the Vision and Knowledge you need to Control your network. They also bring you enhanced location information for emergency response. SYSTIMAX Intelligent Infrastructure Solutions deliver greatly enhanced location information for emergency response. 10
