The challenge

Complex constraints.Real-world pressure.

Before architecture and implementation, we mapped every operational blocker and business risk. These were the core constraints shaping the entire solution design.

4 critical challenges
01Constraint

Unlabeled cable runs across 5 floors

02Constraint

Random outages with no root cause tracing

03Constraint

Gigabit switches throttled by Cat5e bottlenecks

04Constraint

IT team spending 40% of time chasing cables

What we built

A system built for the problem, not off the shelf.

We conducted a full infrastructure survey before touching a single cable — documenting every existing run, active outlet, and patch panel position across all five floors. The survey revealed 34% of active outlets had marginal terminations and 18% of patch cables were the wrong category.

The replacement design specified CAT6A structured cabling throughout, with 24-port patch panels in each floor's IDF, managed 10GbE switches, and a fibre backbone to the main MDF on the ground floor. All runs were tested to TIA-568 standards and labelled to ANSI/TIA-606 conventions.

Cable management was standardised: lockable IDF cabinets on every floor, colour-coded patch cables by VLAN function, and full documentation delivered as both printed and digital assets.

Capabilities delivered

Every feature with a reason.

01

CAT6A end-to-end deployment

All horizontal runs replaced with CAT6A. Tested to TIA-568C.2-1 standards. Every outlet verified at 10GBASE-T performance.

02

Managed 10GbE switching

Floor-level IDFs with managed PoE+ switches. Fibre uplinks to core. VLAN segmentation per department and function.

03

Full TIA-606 labelling

Every outlet, patch panel port, and cable run labelled to standard. Documentation delivered in both print and digital formats.

04

VoIP & PoE infrastructure

PoE+ budget sized for full VoIP and access point deployment. QoS configured for voice traffic prioritisation.

05

Network documentation package

Full as-built drawings, port maps, switch configurations, and test reports. Handed over at project completion.

06

Structured IDF cabinets

Lockable floor-level cabinets with cable management trays, power strips, and environmental monitoring sensors.
