Active equipment
Active equipment
Active equipment is the network equipment which actively, reliably and securely transmits, receives and processes voice and data traffic via the network
- Benefit from a converged IP network
- Infrastructure that actively manages your data network
- Data servers
- Switches
- Routers
- PoE injectors
- PoE splitters
- PoE extenders
- Wireless access points
- Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS)
Network infrastructure
Network infrastructure are the mostly passive elements of the network which either hold or connect the rest of the equipment on the network
- Ensures smooth data transfer within an organisation
- Robust and reliable connections
- Copper or optical cabling to suit applications
- Structured cabling
- Data connections
- Data or telecoms networks
- Server cabinets, racks and enclosures
- Containment
- Power distribution units
Wireless networks
Wireless networks provide secure and reliable network connectivity and transmission via radio frequency through the air, rather than using wires
- Increased mobility throughout your organisation
- Increases teamwork and productivity
- Cost effective
- Simple to install
- Easy to upgrade
- Secure
- Ideal for temporary / guest connections
- Easy to provide guest access
- Consistent connectivity throughout your organisation
High speed cables
High speed cables use copper cables to provide consistent availability of large volumes of voice or data messaging / information. These are usually only suitable for distances of up to 100 metres.
- High speed data connections for data centres and Local Area Networks (LANs)
- Enables consistent high speed availability of information
- Improves productivity
- Variety of categories (capacities) from Cat5e to Cat7
- Enables use of bandwidth hungry devices
- Robust
- Allows increasing number of devices to be connected to a network
- Screened and unscreened options to eliminate interference
- Ideal for transmission over distances up to 100m
- Suitable for Voice & Data transmission
Fibre backbone
Fibre optic cables use high quality glass rods to transmit large volumes of voice and data traffic at very high speed over long distances
- Very high bandwidth – can carry much more data at one time
- Ideal for longer distance transmission (up to 25 miles)
- Extremely high transmission speeds
- Single mode or multi-mode options
- Immune to electromagnetic interference
- Lightweight and robust
- Future proofed connectivity
VoIP telephony
Voice over IP (VoIP) telephony uses traditional data infrastructure connected to smart software to enable voice calls over short or long distances at lower costs and with greater functionality than a traditional PBX based telephone system
- Lower costs than traditional telephone systems
- Eliminates requirement for traditional phone system infrastructure
- Take your desk phone when you work from home and enjoy same functionality
- Manage your phone system via the cloud
- Transfer calls to other offices as simply as in internal extension
- Calls to other offices on the same network are free
- Higher call quality
- Easily scalable
- Future proof your business communications
- Call recording
- Integrates with existing CRM system
Unified Communications
Unified communications systems enable organisations to reliably and securely connect a wide range of enterprise grade audio and visual communication systems
- Integrate a wide range of enterprise communication systems
- Improve collaboration across your teams
- Instant connectivity whether in the office or remote working
- Screen sharing
- Video conferencing
- Instant messaging
- Exceptional reliability to keep your organisation running
- Easier administration and support capabilities
- Improve productivity
UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply)
Power Distribution Units (PDUs) and Uninterrupted Power Supplies (UPSs) provide reliable and efficient management of power to an organisation’s network equipment. Protecting it from overheating / working erratically and causing damage to any connected equipment and information, should the power supply fail
- Efficient power distribution to network equipment
- Rack PDUs prevent accidental disconnection
- Rack PDUs measure energy usage at socket level and above
- Simplifies load balancing
- Remotely turn power on or off with switched rack PDUs
- UPS prevents data loss and equipment damage due to power irregularities
- UPS provides opportunity to save work and shut down systems safely
- UPS can offer back up power to continue working for critical systems
- Improves longevity of equipment
Network security
Enables Enterprise grade security for your voice and data networks. Minimising or removing threats from local and remote sources to ensure the ongoing reliability and availability of your network
- Protects the usability and integrity of your network
- Can be physical security or software security
- Access control to server rooms
- Biometric access to server cabinets
- Network security access guidance
