Golden Star Technology (GST) called in to reorganize and optimize Intermediate Distribution Frame (IDF) cable management for a premier healthcare facility in Southern California . The goal was to improve network infrastructure organization by repatching, re-dressing, and optimizing the use of patch panels and switches.

Key Tasks Included: 

• Port Mapping: Created detailed port maps linking the switches and patch panels to facilitate seamless re-cabling.
• Cable Management: Unplugged and systematically replaced existing cables. Repatched and dressed cables according to the new port maps, using hospital-supplied materials.
• Testing and Validation: Collaborated with the customer’s IT team to verify network connectivity after completing each IDF setup.

The GST team successfully completed the project, delivering a well-organized IDF setup that met the facility’s expectations for functionality and maintainability. By using a fixed price service model, the project was completed within budget, emphasizing cost predictability and customer satisfaction.
