Solution

We provided 10gbps internet connectivity including a backup solution from diverse data centres. This ensured the building always had internet connectivity with zero downtime even if the primary connection went down.

To ensure high speeds and minimum latency, we installed Cat6A cabling infrastructure with fibre backbone across all floors. To compliment the Cat6A cabling, we installed Juniper and Cisco networking infrastructure ensuring high speed and near zero latency.

We deployed a Unifi wireless infrastructure throughout the building to ensure seamless handovers between floors and the rooftop garden. This enabled us to provide a wireless solution that met the client’s high specification.

We were regularly liaising with Westminster council and the ISP to ensure the Wayleave and Civil works progressed in a prompt and timely manner to meet client deadlines.
