In this session, I will be discussing the importance of assuring infrastructure readiness for those deploying or managing smart building technologies. For those who design and deploy the infrastructure systems that are the foundation for building intelligence, this session will provide insight into the depth of testing that should now be performed.  In this session I will discuss extended measurements defined in ANSI/TIA 1152-A that should be made as part of cable certification, as well as extended measurements of link speed, and different types of network-based power, as well as wired and wireless network connectivity testing.  I will also touch on how to extended a service offering beyond cable certification, to increase revenue potential, and win more bids with a competitive service offering.
