PE0715 Wavenet –Managed Internet Service and Cabling

Wavenet will be providing a fully managed internet service for the site at New Mansion

Square which consists of providing connectivity to the commercial units (tech hub, cultural

unit, 11 other units + 1 more in future) and the residents longue (coworking, cinema

room, phone booths)

Following the cablers recent site survey, it has been identified that additional cabling

infrastructure is required to support the delivery of a managed connectivity solution. The existing cabling infrastructure is only suitable for BT’s FTTP network, which is residential

in nature and does not support the service levels or resilience expected of a business-grade

managed service. In order to deliver on the brief, the following works need to be carried out:

Cabling

• Cables linking each unit to the Main IT Room
• 1 x cable will be run from the Main IT room to each of the 14 units in scope
• Cables will be 4 core fibre
• Cables will be run using existing routes – roof voids, cable trays, and underground

ducting

• Internal cables will be tight buffer internal type
• External cables will be CST armoured protected
• 1 x LC 4 Duplex fibre tray will be installed in each of the in-unit comms cabinets

Units 1 and 2

• Although not currently in scope, a cable will be run to the marketing suite to save cost

and complexity in future

• If the suite is not accessible, the cable can be left coiled and secure nearby, ready for

installation when this unit is being refurbished

Main IT Room

A new cabinet will be installed to keep our equipment safe and segregated from other contractors

This will be a 20u floor standing cabinet (800mm x 800mm)

1 x LC 48 Duplex fibre tray will be installed

1 x 6way PDU will be installed. This will connect to the Commando unit – currently not in-use

Cabling for WiFi Access Points (APs)

In the resident’s lounge and the tech hub, a single Cat6 cable will need to be installed for connecting the AP

This will be run from the in-unit cabinet to the ceiling, where the AP
