RATHBONES

This forward-thinking company specified a Datwyler structured cabling solution for its office in London, as it offered high performance for long-term network support. As the exclusive UK source of Datwyler cabling products, iDACS worked closely with The Cabling Group, who delivered the installation, to ensure a smooth project roll-out.

Having specified the Datwyler solution for a previous site, Rathbones were already aware of the quality of the product and the coverage offered by the Datwyler 25 Year System Warranty.

For this project angled patch panels were used, which provided improved cable management in the rack and higher port density; as no additional patch lead management panels were required.

Nearly 140km of shielded Cat6A cable ran over five floors, with more than 2500 floor box outlets. Graham Smith, from The Cabling Group, has worked with iDaCs and Datwyler products on a number of jobs;

“Rathbones was a fast track City fit-out, being undertaken across five high-end floor finishes. The IT cabling infrastructure was a Datwyler Category 6A SFTP solution that had to support the clients, LAN, Wireless, BMS and AV networks. The pace of the project was challenging, but with the support of the iDaC/Datwyler teams, we never missed a deadline. The materials were always available, and delivered when & where they were meant to, on time without fuss. The project and technical support throughout the project was first class, never a problem”.

Paul Hunter, Technical Director at iDaCs Solutions, visited the site on a number of occasions (and on completion) as part of the system warranty procedure. Since the initial install, a further half floor has been added, which will also be eligible for a warranty.
