10 Gb CAT6A structured cabling at the Embassy of Saudi Arabia: 4,000 metres in 3 days

• 4,000 metres Of cabling, across CAT6A copper, external cabling and fibre.
• 10 Gb Of capacity at every CAT6A outlet.
• 3 days Of execution, within the deadline set by the client.
• 10 technicians Assigned exclusively, outside office hours.

A diplomatic mission cannot stop, nor can it accept improvisation. It demands confidentiality, strict deadlines and silent work during office hours. That is why the works plan relied on large teams and night work: the network grew without the embassy feeling the works.

The result is a modern, secure infrastructure, ready for heavy traffic loads and continuous critical communications.

Structured network at the workstations

• 10 Gb CAT6A copper Installed for high performance and a long service life.
• Cable trunking Cabling neatly installed and organised in view, with no improvisation.
• CAT6A sockets and faceplates At every new and expanded outlet.

Racks and datacentre

• Patch panels — in the racks and in the datacentre.
• Identification — professional labelling of cables, sockets and panels.

Link between buildings

• External cabling — heavy-duty cabling between buildings.
• Fibre optics — with fibre switches and direct links to the datacentre, for stability and bandwidth.

Certification

• Testing Certification of the entire structured network.
• Reports Complete technical documentation handed to the embassy.
• Verification Integrity and performance confirmed outlet by outlet.

Being chosen by an entity with such high standards reflects the confidence international organisations place in our network infrastructure, our teams' capacity for large-scale projects and our experience in environments where security and confidentiality are non-negotiable. We thank the Embassy for the trust it has placed in us.
