New ICT support Office, what would you do?

You need somewhere to hide in there. Maybe move that big blue/grey cupboard away from the wall a bit.

a big solid lock on the door!!!!

You joke about that but I work in a very old school which has loads of underground tunnels and escape hatches..

Walk in cupboard anyone?? lol

You've got a window, what more do you need?

48 Network points for the office, you would be surprised how much kit you can get done with enough points!
Cab for patch panels and fibre switch etc
Paint it a new colour, something bright like a bright red
For each network point have 2 power sockets
Wireless AP for guaranteed wifi in your office
Coffee machine / urn for hot water
Microwave for lunches
PC / Laptop of choice


Enjoy

I am desperate for a chair like that!!

I was thinking that!

Others have mentioned network points, I would add more desk space for PC's laptops, desk for the kettle and mini fridge (no joke). Not impressed with that little window though!!!

We currently have thought about a screen for jobs/server monitors, grab a little aircon unit for the summer? we also have two whiteboards and 2 pin up boards for information/notes etc.

We have some shelves for some basic stuff. Not sure if any of the above helps but thats what we pretty much got.

A black hole or invisible door to another dimension :-).

Might be worth checking the Server and office photos thread for ideas

+1 for that, we have switches in between the desks (yfrog Photo : http://yfrog.com/nu33mroj Shared by ArcathWhitefall) which means 24 ports between 2 people (+1 Gigabit port per person). The switches are also vlanned so we can run test domains independantly without impacting the network. There is also a PDU further down the desk so we don't have to root around for plugs.

Cool I like the idea of attaching the Switch vertical between the desks!

P.S. loving the 70s style ski challet walls in your office haha Need Moar screens #iworkinit
