Structured Data Cabling Category 6A Installation
High-Speed Network Infrastructure for Basingstoke Facility
This year, we’ve completed a full-scale structured cabling installation at a newly developed factory and office complex in Basingstoke, delivering over 400 Cat 6A data outlets and a singlemode fibre optic backbone to support high-performance networking across the site.
Site Overview
The facility consists of four interconnected buildings; cabled back to three central comms cabinets. Our team designed and installed a future-proof network infrastructure using EXCEL Cat 6A shielded cabling, fully rated for 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) performance. All cabling is covered by a 25-year manufacturer's warranty, ensuring long-term reliability and compliance.
Installation Highlights
- Elevated cable runs across the production floor were carefully routed using MEWPs for safe access and precision.
- Fibre and copper pathways were designed for optimal performance, scalability, and ease of maintenance.
- The final result is a clean, high-performance infrastructure ready to support industrial operations, office connectivity, and future expansion.
The photos speak for themselves—the finished installation is a testament to our commitment to quality, safety, and technical excellence.
