Network Installations

Structured cabling is the most long-lived investment in your network infrastructure. Properly installed and labelled cabling lasts fifteen to twenty years and supports multiple generations of active network equipment. We install, test, and certify every cable run before any device is connected to it.

• Category 6 copper cabling for Gigabit Ethernet to every workstation and device
• Category 6A cabling for 10-Gigabit environments and data centres
• Fibre optic multimode and singlemode backbone between floors and buildings
• Patch panels, cable trays, conduits, and trunking installed neatly and to specification
• Every cable run tested with a Fluke certifier — test reports included in handover pack
• All ports, patch panels, and cables labelled using a consistent naming scheme
• Rack installation and cable management inside server and communications rooms

A wireless site survey is the only reliable way to design a Wi-Fi network. We map your floor plan, identify interference sources, and calculate access point placement to deliver consistent, high-speed coverage in every room — including meeting rooms, warehouses, outdoor areas, and multi-storey premises.

• Wireless site survey with heat map and access point placement plan
• Enterprise access points from Cisco, Ubiquiti UniFi, MikroTik, or TP-Link Omada
• Centralised wireless controller for unified management of all access points
• Seamless roaming between access points without dropping connections
• Separate SSID for staff, management, IoT devices, and guests with traffic isolation
• WPA3 and WPA2-Enterprise 802.1X authentication with RADIUS server integration
• Wi-Fi 6 and Wi-Fi 6E deployment for high-density environments

Managed switches and properly designed VLANs are what separate a professional network from a basic plug-and-play setup. VLANs allow you to isolate finance, operations, guest traffic, IP cameras, and management traffic from each other, improving both security and performance.

• Managed Layer 2 and Layer 3 switch configuration with port assignments
• VLAN design and inter-VLAN routing policy tailored to your departments and security policy
• Spanning Tree Protocol configuration to prevent network loops
• Link aggregation (LACP) for high-throughput uplinks between switches and servers
• Power over Ethernet (PoE) switches for access points, IP phones, and IP cameras
• Quality of Service (QoS) configuration to prioritise voice and video traffic
• Port security to prevent unauthorised devices connecting to your network

Every network we install is secured with a properly configured firewall. Default-allow configurations with no inspection of outbound traffic are a significant security risk that most basic router setups leave unaddressed. We configure next-generation firewall features appropriate to your threat profile and compliance requirements.

• Next-generation firewall installation from Fortinet, pfSense, Mikrotik, or Cisco
• Stateful packet inspection with application-layer filtering
• Intrusion detection and prevention with regularly updated signature sets
• Web content filtering by category to enforce acceptable use policy
• DNS-over-HTTPS and malware domain blocking at the network level
• NAT configuration, DMZ setup for publicly accessible servers
• Firewall rules documented and reviewed — no undocumented legacy rules left in place

Remote working and multi-branch operations require secure connectivity that protects sensitive business data in transit. We design and deploy VPN solutions scaled to your number of users and locations, from a simple remote access VPN for a small team to a full site-to-site mesh connecting multiple branches.

• Site-to-site IPSec VPN tunnels connecting multiple office branches securely
• Remote access VPN (SSL/TLS and IKEv2) for staff working from home or the road
• Multi-factor authentication enforced on all remote access connections
• Split tunnelling configuration to route only business traffic through the VPN
• Zero-trust network access (ZTNA) for organisations requiring stricter access control
• SD-WAN deployment for businesses with multiple branches requiring traffic optimisation
• VPN client deployment and end-user setup guidance for all staff

A network that is not monitored will fail at the worst possible moment. Our managed network service keeps a constant eye on every device in your infrastructure, alerting our team to anomalies before they become outages and resolving most issues remotely without any disruption to your operations.

• 24-hour remote monitoring of all switches, routers, firewalls, and access points
• Proactive alerting on device offline, high CPU, memory pressure, and link failures
• Bandwidth utilisation monitoring with trend analysis and capacity planning
• Firmware and security patch management for all network devices
• Quarterly preventive maintenance visits with inspection and cleaning
• SLA-backed response: 4-hour critical, 8-hour high, 1-business-day standard
• Monthly network health report with uptime statistics and incident summary
