Bristol, Conn. Where the best of the best have come to leave their mark. We worked here with NTC, Systems Group and R Orange integrators just to name a few. Guys here have worked with us at Turner, Discovery Channel, CNN and Time Warner only to name a few. A few of the old cowboys here are listed below.


ESPN
Jason Langley, my son, on the right, started out with us at Turner went on to a multitude of projects with KOMO TV, with Pat Rutherford and a number of projects with Direct TV, Turner CNN and others. Jay is a very hard worker who has gone on to lead on big projects.
ESPN
We worked with Pat Rutherford first at Turner Studios and a multitude of others. Pat attended Full Sail Institute of Engineering and Production in Florida. He also worked as a studio engineer in Atlanta, Ga. on such projects as Ushers, "You Make Me Wanna", Which went double platinum.


Crude Rude (Randy) Randy like myself comes from a varied background which gives him a can do ability to see a solution to a problem and implement it! He also built his own loghome in the Pennsylvania mountains. A real can do brother!
ESPN
Steve Bennett worked with us at Turner, ESPN and a number of other projects. He is a very good all round integrator and supervisor.


ESPN
Hundreds of miles of cable go into a project of this size. We ran 240,000 cables just from the 1024 router switchers at the Echo Star satellite station in Gilbert, Az.
ESPN
A good integration crew makes up all lables, connectorizes and pulls cable to as close a staging area as possible waiting on final locations and equipment to be given elevations and locations.


ESPN
Many times the racks are airwired if we have the location and elevation but not the piece of equipment. When the piece of equipment arrives it is installed and connected with ease.
ESPN
Some dedicated racks like DA's are filled as the other racks that feed them are wired. Then dressed properly when they are populated and completed.


ESPN
This is a rack of patchbays and full with this unique style of service loop.
ESPN
Cables are ran underneath an 18 inch floor or more and up and out of the back of the rack ready to be wired in when the equipment is installed from the front. Sometimes the equipment comes prewired and is rolled up with the piece in boxes or rapped up in the rack.


ESPN
Some of these stacks get pretty big. I've seen bigger than this.
ESPN
This is a great looking rack and like I said it is an art to get the neatness and waterfall flow of cables with the cable being capable of being traced as it remains in the same line with no sinkers.


ESPN
This is the backplane of a router. It runs through patchbays and to every piece of equipment in the building and is selected from a router panel.

Welcome to the jungle.

The World Congress Center
This is The World Congress Center in Atlanta, Ga. It is a half mile long convention center. I installed the audio, intercom and fire enunciation system with Baker Audio. It has a multitude of meeting rooms, concert halls and an enormous convention hall area.
