Network cabling for your business or home.

The quality of computer network cabling is a key element to any business environment. Data cables run beside power lines, terminated incorrectly or stressed can severely affect the performance of the Network

 

Structured Network Cabling

Cat 5e

Cat 5e cabling has been the standard network cabling solution for a number of years. It is capable of providing network solutions for 100Base-T (fast Ethernet), 1000Base-T (Gigabit Ethernet) data, voice and video networks with a 100 MHz bandwidth.

Cat 6(a), and Cat7(a)

Cat6, Cat6a, Cat7 and Cat7a cabling solutions provide a network capable of handling all current and near future network data requirements. It is capable of providing network solutions for 100Base-T (fast Ethernet), 1000Base-T (Gigabit Ethernet) data and 10000Base-T (10 Gigabit Ethernet) data, voice and video networks with a faster 250 MHz to 1000 MHz bandwidth.

Comms Cabinets

We are able to provide a full range of cabinets suitable for your requirements wither it’s for a small wall mounted cabinet for an office network switch, a half-height cabinet for an office telephone system or a full height cabinet deep enough to house your servers with their cable handling systems.

We are also able to fully fit out these cabinets with a full range of patch panels, cable trays and UPS power systems.

We are also able to provide a service to fully refit your existing communication cabinets so if your existing cabinets are looking a bit like a spaghetti junction then give us a call and we can provide a free network health check.

 

Fibre Optics

We can provide complete fibre solutions to our clients – from design, installation, termination, testing and certification, to maintenance of the fibre.

Fibre optics are steadily replacing copper wire as an appropriate means of data communication. Their high speeds and the ability to run the cables over 100m make them ideal for providing the backbone for many network systems.

Being able to span long distances also make Fibre optic cable ideal for inter connecting office buildings, schools, colleges and industrial units.

In order to cope with the ever increasing demand for higher speed and bandwidth to supply data, voice and video to a desk, Fibre to the Desktop (FTTD) is fast becoming common in the modern office. With FTTD each desk is supplied with a small fibre cable from the patch panel and terminated into a wall socket similar to the way cat5e cables are currently being used.

 

Wireless Networking

Lazer Wireless

Laser wireless networking is an ideal alternative to renting expensive leased lines or digging and laying fibre between locations where line of sight is between buildings is possible.

Laser can provide a fast 100 Mb to 1 Gb, secure connectivity for data, voice and video over short distances typically up to 1 Km.

Wireless Lan

Business does not happen just indoors—as wireless LAN (WLAN) devices proliferate, the need to provide them connectivity extends outdoors. Applications such as hot spots, outdoor surveillance, outdoor inventory control, or outdoor baggage handling all stretch the need for WLAN access. And it is not just providing access to client devices—remote networks need to be connected as well. These networks could be in remote buildings, or mobile networks that are located outside. These applications can be deployed cost-effectively with equipment designed specifically for these environments.

Telephone Systems

We can not only provide traditional telephone cabling but can also provide the full range of Cisco’s Smart Business Communications Systems

The Cisco Smart Business Communication System (SBCS) brings together voice, data, video, security and wireless in a single affordable solution.

New service available Portable Appliance Testing (PAT Testing)
