From the client:

“The technology planning for (WIMR) demanded a solution that was flexible and easy to maintain, while conforming to UW campus technology standards. AEI’s solutions ensure our researchers a protected environment for their computing equipment without affecting the building-wide technology infrastructure. Further, this infrastructure will accommodate a wide variety of systems, both the known and unknown, including wireless communications, high-performance computing, and high-speed networking.

The integrated design approach used by AEI also ensures that the building’s electrical and cooling systems were designed to handle the impacts of changing technology.”
