Electrical Installation.
The
electrical installation has included floor box relocations, lighting
installations, new power installation, comms room power and
miscellaneous power sockets throughout the commercial floor space.All works have been accredited under the NICEIC accreditation
Structured Cabling Installation
The offices have been a range of 80-500 outlets and a mixture of cat5e installations and cat6 installations.
There have also been numerous relocations and amendments to current layouts to use the existing office cabling where possible.
All new structured cabling installations have been fully Fluke tested and Manufacturer warrantied.
Fibre Optic Cabling Installation
The majority of the sites have expanded from initial occupation and involved the requirement of fibre optic cabling links between existing cabinets to satellite cabinets in other parts of the floor and other parts of the building
In Waterloo a 400m fibre optic cabling installation was required down 8 floor along an underground car park and back up another part of the building.
Wi-Fi Installation
A large portion of the company's network is run over Wi-Fi and therefore a large amount of data cabling has been installed for this purpose involving lots of high level data cabling installations.
The Wi-Fi access points were also installed for later setup by the charities IT provider
