What should i know about copper vs fiber for data center bids
1
Data center projects lose money in the field, not in the network design: copper and fiber pathways cross power, cooling and structure, and the conflicts surface when crews are already there.

<p>By the time a crew is idle behind an unresolved clash, the loss runs $15K to $50K a week. BidLight works from your Revit model instead of a markup built from memory:</p>
<ul><li>Publish from Revit or the federated model in Navisworks. Each publish is a versioned snapshot.</li><li>Compare revisions element by element. MEP and structural changes appear in separate categories, so a moved tray or rack shows up.</li><li>Pin an issue to the pathway elements, with the sheet and revision attached.</li><li>Assign an owner and let the 6am digest chase them.</li><li>Close with a screenshot, a tagged user and the model commit.</li></ul>
<p>Caught in the model, a clash costs about $50. Found in the field, $5,000 to $50,000.</p>
