Overview
Where we can help
When your infrastructure is in China and your team is elsewhere, Smart Hands or Remote Hands provide the local physical execution while your remote team keeps technical control. Our engineering pool includes CCNA, CCNP, and CCIE certified engineers for data center checks, rack and stack, structured cabling, firewall replacement, network cutovers, and clear completion records.
- Photos before and after work
- Rack and labeling records
- Fluke copper and fiber test results where agreed
- Serial-number and port checks
- CCTV and access-control installation and handover notes
- IT room cleanup, cable-labeling, and rack-layout records
- Signed completion sheet
- English summary notes
- Follow-up action list
What You Receive
Completion records for remote infrastructure teams
Smart Hands work is often controlled by a remote network or infrastructure team. The report needs to show what was touched, checked, changed, and left for follow-up.
- Before and after rack photos
- Serial-number and port checks
- Rack position and label notes
- Live verification notes when needed
- English completion summary and follow-up list
Capabilities
Typical onsite work
Copper and Fiber Cabling
We install, route, label, dress, and test Cat6/Cat6A copper and fiber cabling for offices, data rooms, warehouses, and production environments. Each agreed run is validated with Fluke testing, with test results included in the handover records.
Data Center Remote Hands
Checklist-based rack and stack, console access assistance, device checks, reboots, patch verification, router or switch replacement, and circuit coordination under remote authorization.
Firewall and Security Deployment
Physical firewall mounting, HA link patching, staged replacement, and remote cutover support.
Network Migration and Cutover
Physical survey, site walkthrough, asset tagging, and late-night or weekend maintenance-window work.
Physical Survey
Photos, serial checks, port checks, rack position checks, labels, and onsite confirmation for remote teams.
CCTV and Door Access Control
We help define the onsite scope for camera coverage, retention, access rights, visitor flow, and attendance records. Field engineers can support cable routes, device mounting, network connection, testing, and handover notes alongside your security platform provider.
IT Room Remediation and Rack Cleanup
We restore order in busy network rooms and data closets by tracing and labeling connections, improving rack layout, removing agreed redundant cabling or equipment, and documenting the final state for future changes and fault finding.
Multi-City Field Support
Field support across China business hubs, offices, factories, warehouses, branches, and data center environments.
Support Options
How we can support the work
Checklist-Based Remote Hands
Onsite work based on your team’s checklist, with photos and live verification when needed.
Project Field Team
Planned onsite resources for network refresh, cabling, migration, rollout, or cutover programs.
Maintenance Window Support
Late-night or weekend support for firewall swaps, circuit changes, network migration, and critical cutovers.
Response SLA
SLA-aligned onsite support for network incidents
For contracted and pre-onboarded sites, Smart Hands dispatch can be aligned to the response target that fits the incident, location, and service window.
SBD-4
4-Hour Onsite Response
Priority onsite arrival target for agreed network incidents and pre-onboarded sites.
- Best for
- Critical infrastructure issues in eligible cities with confirmed access and authorization.
SBD-8
8-Hour / Same Business Day
Same-business-day onsite response for requests received within the agreed service window.
- Best for
- Network checks, device swaps, and incidents that need attention before the business day closes.
NBD
Next Business Day
Onsite response planned for the next business day after the ticket and access details are confirmed.
- Best for
- Non-critical faults, planned replacements, and work that can wait until the next working day.
2BD
Second Business Day
A lower-urgency response target for planned work or locations that need additional scheduling time.
- Best for
- Routine site tasks, multi-city scheduling, and work where cost or planning matters more than speed.
Process
From first note to finished visit
Tell us the city, timing, access notes, and what needs to happen. We’ll choose the right engineer and send a clear update after the visit.
- Review SOW, BoM, checklist, access rules, and timing
- Confirm tools, site access, engineer skill, and safety needs
- Execute onsite work with photos or live verification
- Send completion notes, labels, reports, and sign-off

Multi-Site Palo Alto Firewall Refresh Across China
Between July and September 2025, GreenITService supported a multi-site Palo Alto firewall refresh across 14 Chinese cities. Sites received one or two PA-440 appliances according to their requirements; locations with two appliances used an active/passive design. Remote engineers migrated the configuration, security policies, and VPN services while onsite engineers supported installation and testing.

FAQ
Common questions
Can you execute remote-hands tasks under our change control?
Yes. We follow your checklist and change authorization, provide live verification when needed, and send completion records.
Do you support late-night or weekend maintenance windows?
Yes. We support maintenance windows for firewall swaps, network migrations, circuit changes, and other onsite work in China.
What records do you provide after onsite work?
Photos, labeling matrices, Fluke results where applicable, sign-off sheets, and English summary notes for your team.
Can you cover both data centers and enterprise offices?
Yes. We support data center Smart Hands tasks as well as office, factory, warehouse, and branch sites.
What should we send before a Smart Hands visit?
Send the city, site access rules, rack or room details, device list, checklist, maintenance window, tools needed, and the records your remote team wants after the visit.
Can you provide live verification during the work?
Yes. When required, onsite engineers can share photos, join a remote bridge, or verify steps with your team during the visit.
Can you support 4-hour, 8-hour, NBD, and 2BD response targets?
Yes. For agreed cities and pre-onboarded sites, we can support 4-hour, 8-hour, Next Business Day, and Second Business Day onsite response targets. The final target depends on the service window, site access, engineer availability, required tools, parts, and the agreed scope.
Does GreenITService provide Remote Hands in China?
Yes. GreenITService provides Remote Hands for China data centers, network rooms, offices, factories, warehouses, and branches, subject to site access, task scope, engineer skill, and timing.
What is the difference between Smart Hands and Remote Hands in China?
Remote Hands usually covers bounded physical tasks directed by a remote team, such as visual checks, reboots, patch verification, or component swaps. Smart Hands often includes broader technical execution such as rack and stack, structured cabling, troubleshooting, migration, and cutover support.
