20.11.2009 - Cumbria Constabulary, Carlisle - Excel Cat6
Cumbria Constabulary had occupied temporary premises in Carlisle
A suitable alternative site was chosen and the building of the new Carlisle headquarters began in 2008 on the Durranhill Industrial Estate.An experienced contractor was needed to manage the installation of the infrastructure required, so that the new building could operate effectively. Established in 2003, Compass Cabling Systems Ltd is a company specialising in the installation of cable based infrastructures for a wide variety of systems, ranging from voice and data network installation to fire and security systems, and electrical services and installations.
The breadth of products in the Excel range enabled Compass Cabling Systems to carry out the entire project using Excel products. The chosen technology was Excel Cat 6 UTP cable.The backbone to the installation was Excel 24 core 50/125 OM3 fibre cables and 100 pair CW1308 telephone cable for voice and data links.
When installed by an official Excel Cabling Partner (ECP), the Excel system comes with a 25 year product and application warranty. Many of the products have also been independently verified by 3rd party test laboratories, such as Delta and ETL, to ensure that a product or a set of products comply with a particular performance standard.
The temporary premises that the police force were operating out of increased the urgency for the new building to be completed in the minimum amount of time. Compass Cabling Systems were able to rise to the challenge due to their knowledge of the Excel system and completed a time efficient installation of the components.
The Cumbria Constabulary has now moved into the new purpose-built premises. Compass Cabling Systems has been able to confidently complete a high profile project in the knowledge that the installation will continue to perform for the customer at the level that they expect to receive for the foreseeable future.
