How to deal with Cable Trays in a Computer Lab
A few years ago, I worked for Microsoft as a Lab Manager.
I took care of the hardware while the developers used these machines for testing their new code.
A key issue is to be able to reconfigure the hardware as quickly as possible.
Since this is not a static "installation", overhead cable trays are the best thing to use -- you can move networking cables and fibre from rack to rack quickly.
The issue is that these trays are eight feet off the floor. The solution --
drywall stilts.
