Increased Reliability and Resiliency
The Solution Architects in our Cabling & Electrical Services division specialise in Design and Installations. The goal of every electrical design is to deliver the right mix of these attributes:
- High availability
- High speed
- High redundancy
- Appropriate Data Sovereignty
- Low Cost relative to other solutions
Our Cabling Design Process
1. Business Need Extraction
We want to know how you want yourcabling to support your company. So the first step in our network design process is to talk about your business requirements. We’ll focus on the productivity, reliability and security issues in your current system, the vision you have for an upgrade and importantly, what your strategic goals are for the business in terms of user numbers, functionality and office locations 3, 5 and 10 years into the future.
Based on our discussion we may have gathered enough information or we may request some further information-gathering be undertaken, to help us specify the best solution. This may involve some network analysis to help us be sure of the volume and type of requirements the new design will need to support.
2. Cabling Design and Options
Our team will produce a topology diagram backed by a comprehensive proposal and take you through it. In most cases we present several options balancing the need for availability, reliability, security and cost and talk to you about the pro’s and con’s of each. When you choose the recommendation that best suits our company, we’ll produce a Detailed Implementation Plan.
3. Detailed Implementation Plan
Upgrading or installing a new cabling or electrical requires careful execution and testing to ensure that there’s no or minimal interruption to business as usual. Your Detailed Implementation Plan will take into account the everyday operations of your business, specific user requirements and more. When completed, we’ll take you through it to gain your approval. Then, if you prefer, we can implement it for you.
4. Execution and Risk Migration
Our cable and electrical engineers will follow your implementation plan to the letter, executing each element as required and minimizing risk of business interruption as they go. Your new network will be fully tested before cutover occurs. In most cases, the result is a seamless transition.
Network Security is the Key Priority
Every cabling and electrical project we design has to pass our in-house security tests before we present it to you. Not only that, but every network has to be built with multiple paths back to the datacenter in case of disruption.
