In February 2021, Vicom Plus won a tender to implement a structured cabling system (structured cabling system) for workstations in the new office building of JSC "ENPF."
Vicom Plus made the decision to use structured cabling system materials from Commscope, a well-known global manufacturer of optical systems.
CommScope —
an American provider of global network infrastructure, headquartered in Hickory, North Carolina. Founded in 1976, CommScope was spun off from General Instrument in 1997 and has more than 20,000 employees worldwide, serving customers in over 130 countries.
The scope of work included installing a cabling network for more than 650 workstations in a new office building in Almaty.
The Customer initially set strict requirements for the contractor. The entire scope of work had to be completed as quickly as possible in an operating office center. This immediately imposed a number of serious restrictions on our company's activities, including a ban on noisy work (using hammer drills) during the daytime.
Work on the project began in April 2021 and was fully completed in the third ten-day period of August 2021!
As a result, Vicom Plus connected more than 650 new workstations, located across 9 floors of the new office building, to the corporate communications network and the uninterruptible power supply network.
More than 55 kilometers of copper cable were installed, connecting 1,198 copper links, along with more than 1.5 kilometers of fiber-optic cable, connecting 198 optical links.
For the ENPF structured cabling system project, Uniprise and SYSTIMAX 5e, 6, 6A, and OSP copper cables were used, as well as SM / MM / OSP fiber-optic cables with the corresponding optical connectors.
At the Customer’s request, the general contractor must obtain a certificate for the implemented structured cabling system for the maximum warranty period. For Commscope, the manufacturer, this maximum period is 25 years.
Thanks to the high-quality installation of cable lines and connected links using state-of-the-art equipment, as well as the use of high-precision FLUKE Int. equipment for signal testing, Vicom Plus was able to confirm the required quality level with the Manufacturer, Commscope, on the first attempt and obtain a certificate confirming the 25-year warranty!
