US Cellular - Mobile Switching Center Design Prototype
Wick Fisher White provided a design prototype for a typical Mobile Telephone Switching Center (MTSO) to be built throughout the nation for U.S. Cellular Corporation. Wick Fisher White provided engineering design services for the mechanical, electrical, plumbing and fire protection building systems for two of the sites. These mission critical facilities are located in Nashua, New Hampshire and Augusta, Maine. The facilities included critical switching, data, battery rooms and support spaces. The design included air cooled chillers, switchgear, DDC controls, clean agent suppression systems, emergency generators and redundant mechanical and electrical systems. In addition, Wick Fisher White provided the commissioning services on these projects with written functional test procedures, observation of functional testing and issues log with a final report to US Cellular.
