Data Center, Server Room & Network Closet Services
Abvolt Automation builds and cleans up the physical infrastructure behind business networks: server rooms, network closets and small data center spaces. Racks, copper and fiber, cable management, labeling and the dedicated power that runs it all, for businesses in Lake County, the North Shore and Chicago's northern suburbs.
What we do
- Rack and cabinet installation, leveling, bonding and grounding
- Copper and fiber trunk cabling between racks, rooms and floors
- Patch panels, overhead and vertical cable management
- Dedicated circuits and receptacles for racks, PDUs and UPS equipment
- Labeling and documentation of every port, panel and run
- Rack-and-stack support for your IT team or provider
Cleanup of messy closets and server rooms
Most network closets grow one patch cable at a time until nobody can trace anything. We re-terminate, re-route and re-label so every connection is traceable, airflow improves, and the next change takes minutes instead of an afternoon. We schedule cutovers after hours to keep downtime short.
Power and low voltage together
Server rooms fail on power as often as on network. Because Abvolt Automation does both the electrical and the low-voltage work, the circuits, receptacles and cabling are planned together instead of by two contractors who never talk to each other.
Working with your IT team
We handle the physical layer: cabling, racks, power and labeling. Your IT team or managed service provider handles the configuration. We coordinate schedules and hand over documentation so they can take it from there.
Where we work
Based at 11 N. Skokie Hwy in Lake Bluff, we take commercial work across Lake County and Chicago's North Shore, including Lake Forest, Libertyville, Vernon Hills, Highland Park, Northbrook, Deerfield, Glenview and Waukegan. See all service areas.
Frequently asked questions
What size projects do you take on?
Network closets, server rooms and small data center spaces for businesses, offices and multi-tenant buildings. Tell us what you have and we will tell you honestly whether it is a fit.
Can you clean up an existing server room without downtime?
We plan the work in stages and schedule cutovers after hours, so most of the cleanup happens while the network stays up and the switchovers are brief.
Do you add power for new racks?
Yes. We install dedicated circuits and receptacles for racks, PDUs and UPS units as part of the same project.
Do you configure switches and servers?
No. We handle the physical layer and work alongside your IT team or managed service provider, who handles configuration.
