than 5’6” wide by 7’ long. The consoles will provide space for one 21” computer monitor
and additional work space for the operator. An additional 21” monitor could be added to
either workstation to provide the operator the ability to view two different applications at
the same time. The consoles will house the CPUs and keyboards as well. The CPUs
would be mounted under the work area and the keyboards would be mounted on a pullout
tray.
One video wall display system is designed. A video wall may require up to an additional
three feet of room depth, depending on the technology deployed. The video wall display
will include one large screen display surrounded by four smaller monitors (two on each
side). The operators will have the ability to switch video images or computer displays to
any of the five possible displays. This will allow operators to view up to five images at
one time.
A standard 15” inch wide 4-drawer file cabinet will be placed behind each console. Two
standard 3’ high bookshelves will be placed against one of the walls for storage of
manuals and reference materials. In addition, a 2’6” by 3’6” table will be placed against
the wall opposite the bookshelves to house a controller testing area. The amount of
floor space (26’x14’) for the TMC room will provide adequate room for a conference
table and chairs.
The layout for the equipment room has been designed for up to three and half
equipment racks for Transportation Services - one and a half for immediate needs and
two for future addition. One of the racks will be shared with existing city network
equipment. A 3-foot clearance should be provided between the back of the rack and the
back wall to comply with ADA requirements as well as to provide room for maintenance.
A 6-inch clearance should be provided between each rack for maintenance purposes.
All servers and communications equipment to be installed in the equipment room will be
mounted in the equipment racks. The associated 15” monitors will also be mounted in
the racks. The keyboards will be put in retractable trays attached to the racks.
