The Solution

Prior to work beginning, all technical documentation including rack layouts and patching schedules/ cable matrixes were agreed with the customer. On-site teams were briefed and provided with detailed diagrams. 

Sunspeed also procured and shipped advanced copper and fibre cables and cable containment from leading manufacturers and according with customer standards. 

Sunspeed utilised in-house engineering resource supported by both on-site and remote technical project management to manage the back-to-back installation of structured cabling and hardware. 

The structured cabling was installed over 7 x days, and the hardware installation began immediately afterward, lasting 8 x days. The project proceeded without issue, and the installations were managed seamlessly and according to planning.
