A solid foundation, one connection at a time.
Plan the cabling that supports your data, communications and connected systems.
Request a quoteBuild around the endpoints.
Desk locations, access points, cameras and other devices all influence the cabling plan. Start with the spaces you use now and the changes you expect, so routes and connection requirements can be considered together.
The cabinet matters too.
A structured installation connects the cable routes with the equipment at the other end. Cabinet position, space, patching arrangements and access for future changes are useful parts of the conversation. Equipment selection and any testing or documentation requirements should be included in the agreed scope.
Tell us what is already there.
For an upgrade, explain the current installation and the problems you want to solve. Useful details include approximate outlet counts, floors, distances between areas and any restrictions on working hours. If you are unsure about cable specifications, describe the use instead.
The details that belong in your brief.
Tell us about copper and fibre requirements, the approximate number of outlets, cabinet and patch-panel locations, cable pathways and any existing drawings. If you already have a specification for Cat6, Cat6A or fibre, include that requirement so suitability and delivery can be discussed.
Think about life after installation.
Consistent labels, organised cabinets and agreed testing and handover records help the people who will manage the network. Include these deliverables, spare capacity and occupied-site restrictions when discussing the scope.
What to discuss with us
- Data cabling requirements
- Cabinet and patching arrangements
- New points and expanded connections
- Routes, access and handover requirements
Your questions
Which cable specification do I need?
That depends on the equipment, distances, environment and performance required. The specification should be agreed as part of the design, rather than selected from the website alone.
Can existing cabling be considered?
Include what you know about the current installation and any faults or limitations. Its suitability and any inspection or testing needs can then be discussed.
What should I include in an enquiry?
Approximate data points, buildings and floors, where connections are needed, whether the site is occupied and your planned timeframe.
