Project:
Relocation from Sutton to London

Scope:
Audit Equipment in Sutton site to assess computer room and cabinet requirements within the London office. Design cabling infrastructure to service new users and future expansion.

Installation of 198 New Category 5 enhanced outlets to new floor boxes. Install computer room back bone fibre and UTP gigabit links. Due to EB's rapid expansion within the first year of moving to London, a new building was acquired.

TCS were contracted to cable the new premises and arrange to have an external duct put between the two buildings. We then installed external Fibre and Multicore telephone cables to link directly to the existing Network, eliminating the additional cost of extra ISDN lines.
