Bill.com Palo Alto Headquarters — Enterprise Structured Cabling & Server Room Buildout

Six-week enterprise structured cabling and server room buildout for Bill.com's Palo Alto corporate headquarters — hundreds of Category 6 horizontal data drops, full telecommunications and server room construction, equipment racks, patch panels, fiber optic backbone integration and 100% certified network cabling designed for long-term reliability and future expansion.

Challenge

As a rapidly growing technology company, Bill.com needed a headquarters network that delivered reliable high-speed connectivity, clean and organized telecommunications spaces, capacity for future expansion, enterprise-grade cable management, minimal disruption to ongoing construction schedules, and professional documentation and testing for every installed cable — across multiple departments, conference rooms, collaboration spaces and IT infrastructure.

Frequently Asked

Healthcare cabling questions

Do you follow ICRA and infection-control protocols?+

Yes. Our crews are trained on ICRA Class III/IV containment for cabling work in patient-care and clinical zones, use HEPA-filtered containment carts, and follow your facility's infection-control policy with pre-project ICRA permits where required.

Can you support 24/7 patient care with no downtime?+

Yes. We phase cutovers by department, work off-hours in patient-care areas, pre-stage cable outside patient rooms, and coordinate with your NOC on live IDF work. Downtime per link is measured in minutes.

How do you handle HIPAA-sensitive spaces?+

Every technician on healthcare projects is BAA-covered and background-checked. We do not access PHI, use only badged crew members in clinical areas, and follow your privacy officer's escort and access policies.

Do you install nurse call and medical device cabling?+

Yes. Rauland Responder, Hillrom, and Ascom nurse call cabling; telemetry and physiological monitoring cable; medical imaging fiber; and pharmacy and lab instrument connectivity.

How do you handle EMR and imaging bandwidth?+

We size the horizontal and backbone for full-motion PACS imaging (typically Cat6A horizontal + OS2 fiber backbone) and validate throughput per department before handover.

Are you licensed to do commercial healthcare cabling in California?+

Yes. Access Cabling holds California C-10 and C-7 licenses (CSLB #992009), $5M general liability, workers' comp, and is DIR-registered for prevailing-wage work. Every technician is BICSI-trained and manufacturer-certified.

Can you work in occupied healthcare spaces?+

Yes — most of our healthcare work is in live buildings. Night, weekend, and holiday scheduling is standard, with phased cutovers so operations continue.

Do you certify every drop?+

Yes — every copper drop is Fluke DSX-8000 permanent-link certified to TIA-568.2-D, and every fiber strand gets Tier 1 loss testing plus Tier 2 OTDR trace. Full test reports and as-builts are included in every closeout.
