Item A
New offices and office moves
We plan the network for the new space, including cabling, Wi-Fi and the comms room. We work with your builder or fit-out team so it's ready when you move in.
Sheet 03 · Consulting
Network design and consulting
We design new networks, review existing ones and help you choose between carriers. We work with MikroTik, Ubiquiti, Cisco and Juniper gear and don't resell any one brand.
Scope
Common jobs
Here are some of the jobs we do. If yours isn't on the list, get in touch anyway.
Item B
A second site that needs connecting
We work out the best way to link the sites, whether that's fibre, a Layer 2 service or a fixed wireless link. Then we set it up so both sites work as one network.
Item C
A network that's slow or keeps dropping out
We find the cause and tell you whether it's worth fixing or replacing. If the network is fine and the problem is somewhere else, we'll tell you that too.
Item D
Choosing between carriers
We're not tied to any carrier, so we can compare the options for your site. We'll tell you which one we'd pick and why.
Item E
Drawing up a network nobody has documented
We work out what's there, label it and give you drawings you can hand to anyone who works on it later.
