Data Cabling

From simple office moves and changes to a complete new cable infrastructure, Vietec can provide the installation for you. Our experienced team can design, plan implement and maintain the perfect network for your current and future needs.

Structured wiring systems provide data, voice and videoservices. A saturated cabling approach can be adopted toensure maximum flexibility and minimise ongoing cabling requirements.

Vietec supply and install the following systems:

• Cat 3: Current cable standard, used for data networks utilizing frequencies up to 16 MHz. Popular for 10 Mbit/s Ethernet networks.
• Cat 5e: An enhanced version of Cat 5 that adds specifications for far-end crosstalk. Although 1000BASE-T was designed for use with Cat 5 cable, the tighter specifications associated with Cat 5e cable and connectors make it an excellent choice for use with 1000BASE-T.
• Cat 6: A cable standard for Gigabit Ethernet and other network protocols that is backward compatible with the Category 5/5e and Category 3 cable standards. Cat 6 features more stringent specifications for crosstalk and system noise. The cable standard is suitable for 10BASE-T / 100BASE-TX and 1000BASE-T (Gigabit Ethernet) connections. It provides performance of up to 250 MHz..
• Cat 6a: Operates at frequencies up to 500MHz and provides up to 10Gbit/s
• Cat 7: Draft standard, proposed to include four individually-shielded pairs (ScTP) inside an overall shield. Designed for transmission at frequencies up to 650 MHz. The CAT 7 cable standard has been created to allow 10-gigabit Ethernet over 100 meters of copper cabling.

Detailed Site Survey
Full survey and requirements analysis for the Cabling System.

Network Design and Ratification
A design document is produced to ensure that the entire cable system is fully specified and complies with the latest standards.

Seamless Migration
Our team will devise a detailed migration strategy to ensure a smooth transition.

Project Management
A dedicated project manager agrees equipment sites, cabling routes, outlet positions and any other specified considertaions. A project plan is produced and project reviews are undertaken.

Cable Installation
Fully qualified engineers can carry out installation during normal working hours to minimize disruption.

Testing
A test of all cabling is done. For guarantees, system tests are carried out with the latest equipment and results are provided to the client*.

Network Hardware Installation
Active network hardware is configured, tested and installed upon completion of the cabling*.

Fibre Optic Installation
Fibre Optic cabling provides a far greater bandwidth than copper and is typically used for backbone connection between localized networking equipment and is increasingly becoming the preferred choice for high quality and reliable analogue and digital communications.

Although its higher cost can be prohibitive for desktop applications, fibre optic cabling provides a high security link, with immunity from electromagnetic interference (EMI). It is also the solution for inter-building links and other connections beyond the maximum 90m for Category 5e copper cabling.

Fibre Optic Cable Design & Installation
Vietec carries out the design, installation, testing & maintenance of Fibre Optic systems including Fusion Splicing & Termination of multimode & singlemode fibre cables, both internal and external work, also encompassing repair work.

All types of fibre optic cabling systems are offered including:

• Multimode 62.5/125 (OM1) Datacomms
• Multimode 50/125 (OM2) Video & Datacomms Systems
• Multimode 50/125 (OM3) Gigabit Ethernet an 10 Gig Ethernet for up to 300m
• Singlemode 8/125 (OS1) Gigabit Ethernet and 10 Gig Ethernet for up to 2km.
• All cables are internal/external grade.

Fibre Optic Termination and Testing
Our Fibre Optic termination and testing service is offered to all clients who may prefer to use our skilled services rather than invest in expensive test equipment and costly engineer training. Both methods of termination are offered either direct termination or fusion splicing of pre-manufactured pigtail assemblies.

Server Room Installation
Servers are the brains of most corporations. The rooms and racks that house these servers are a critical part of a company's cabling infrastructure. Since servers, racks and the required cabling usually account for a large part of an IT manager's budget, they must be assured that this environment is built correctly.

In many cases, servers are located separately from a company's wiring closet. In such instances tie cables, either copper or fibre, must be installed to provide connectivity between the network equipment, which provides the pipe to the end user, and the company's servers, which store the important information. We then label and test all connections.
