CASE STUDY: Hertford College

Hertford College,
Cathe Street,
Oxford,
OX1 3BW.

Project:
Category 5 enhanced cabling,
BT1308 Voice cabling,
Fibre Optic + Multicore Voice cabling.
To cable through: The new quadrangles, the Holywell Quadrangles and the old buildings.

Scope:
290 Cat5e and 230 voice outlets had to be installed to 14 new cabinets (and voice box consoles) in three different areas on the campus. TCS co-designed the network infrastructure so that each cabinet had a fibre optic and a multicore voice cable link.

Taking into acount that Hertford College is a class 3 listed building, TCS Cabling completed work at the college within the deadline set out, ensuring that their work was "invisable" to both students and staff alike.
