Achieve an optimal iCenter outcome before deployment
The CBTS Integration Center provides a remote site to stage, configure, test, and optimize all your equipment before onsite installation. We know your organization works hard to keep up with the demands for new technology to support your key business initiatives.
Sometimes—as we’ve heard from our clients—adoption of a new technology is delayed because of the amount of time involved in deploying new data center solutions, not to mention the demands on IT to support them. That’s where the CBTS Integration Center team comes in. We help enterprises overcome these kinds of roadblocks at every stage of their IT processes—from project conception to implementation.

Leveraging configuration in advance
We have learned the importance of having a site where an infrastructure build can be set up and configured in advance.
The key to getting this done is the CBTS Integration Center, a 13,000-square-foot facility located in Edison, NJ, where we have the capacity to install up to ninety dual-powered racks of hardware for staging, configuration and testing. Once the hardware has been tested and optimized, we box them back up and deliver them to your final site.
