Built on a 55-acre parcel in Naperville, IL, the Tellabs headquarters comprises two five-story buildings and parking garages. The buildings are linked by a two-story atrium and a bridge link allows traffic to cross between buildings on the third, fourth and fifth floors. Each lab is unique and features DC electric power, cable tray/ladder systems, nitrogen tank farm system, environmental test chambers and telecommunication equipment testing systems. The Tellabs Customer Training Lab contains six classrooms and a large lab used to train customers on Tellab’s systems. To ensure a speedy move-in, the first phase was completed in 18 months for early occupancy of 450,000 square feet, more than half of the total complex.
