That's where we expect the brighthouse circuits to come in, where the fiber to all the towers, to the telephone room and to A0 (see below) in the convention center terminates.

It's also where the guestroom gateway box lives. We'll need to have a switch here(or in the telephone room) to take the handoff for the guestrooms/public network.

From there, there's fiber out to A1, B1 and D1 (which is only their APs, so we almost definitely won't need it). There's also copper to C1 and C2.
