01
Structured cabling
Copper cabling designed for the speeds and PoE loads your devices need now and later.
- Cat6 and Cat6A
- Workstation, AP and camera points
- Patch panels and faceplates
- Cable management and raceways
IT Infrastructure
IT Infrastructure
Structured cabling, fibre and server rooms designed as the foundation for everything else in the building. Tested, labelled and documented before we hand it over.
Every other system in your office is only as good as the cabling underneath it.
- 01 Structured cabling
- 02 Fibre and backbone
- 03 Server rooms and racks
- 04 Audits and new sites
Infrastructure is the part nobody sees, until it fails.
Cabling is usually installed once, hidden in ceilings and risers, and expected to last ten years or more. Mistakes made at this stage are expensive to fix later: a missing run to a meeting room, a patch panel with no labels, a fibre link that was never tested.
We treat infrastructure as engineering work. Routes, cable categories, rack layouts and containment are planned against the floor plan and the device list, and every permanent link is tested before sign-off. You receive drawings and test results you can use for the life of the building.
What is included
Four areas of work, each designed, delivered and documented to the same standard.
02
Fibre and backbone
Links between floors, buildings and racks with the headroom for future upgrades.
- Fibre and OFC backbone
- Riser and inter-building links
- Splicing and termination
- OTDR and loss testing
03
Server rooms and racks
Rooms and racks laid out for airflow, access, power and maintenance.
- Server room layout
- Network racks and enclosures
- Power distribution in rack
- Cooling and environmental checks
04
Audits and new sites
Assessment of what exists, and planning for what is coming.
- Infrastructure audits
- New office infrastructure
- Office expansion and relocation
- Testing, certification and documentation
How we deliver it
Every project follows the XTSURE Assurance Lifecycle. For this service, it runs in four stages.
-
Survey
We walk the site with the floor plan, confirm cable routes, rack locations, containment and power, and record the device count for every area.
-
Design
Point schedules, cable categories, rack elevations and a bill of quantities, reviewed with you before any material is ordered.
-
Install
Installation to a defined standard for bend radius, separation from power, termination and labelling, with daily progress tracked against the plan.
-
Certify
Every permanent link and fibre is tested. Failures are fixed and retested, and the full results are included in the handover pack.
What you receive at handover
Documentation is part of the work, not an extra. Every item below is handed over in an organised pack your team can use for years.
- As-built drawings with point locations
- Rack elevation drawings
- Port and patch panel schedules
- Copper and fibre test reports
- Labelling that matches the documentation
- Handover walk-through with your team
Common questions
Something else you want to know? Ask us directly.
Should we choose Cat6 or Cat6A?
It depends on what the cabling will carry and for how long. Cat6A supports 10 Gb/s over the full 90 m channel and handles high-power PoE better, which matters for Wi-Fi 6E/7 access points and PTZ cameras. For standard desk points, Cat6 is often enough. We recommend per area, not one choice for the whole building.
Can you work on an occupied office?
Yes. Work in occupied spaces is planned around your business hours, with noisy or disruptive tasks scheduled after hours and areas cleaned and made safe at the end of each shift.
We already have cabling. Can you audit it?
Yes. An audit covers the physical condition of racks and containment, labelling, test results on a sample or full set of links, and a written report with the issues ranked by risk and cost to fix.
