Network Infrastructure and Security
Structured cabling, managed switching, VLAN segmentation and Wi-Fi that holds up under real load.
Who this is for
This is for offices, retail sites, warehouses and villas in Dubai, across the UAE and in Sri Lanka where the network was added to rather than designed: a consumer router doing the work of a firewall, switches in a cupboard nobody has labelled, and dead spots that everyone has learned to walk around.
What changes
We design and install the whole path, from the patch panel to the access point. Guest traffic stops sharing a network with your accounts system, coverage is measured rather than guessed, and every cable is labelled and documented, so the next change takes an hour instead of a day.
What's included
- Site survey and Wi-Fi coverage planning, including a heat map before anything is ordered
- Structured cabling: Cat6 or Cat6A, patch panels, containment and labelling to a documented plan
- Managed switching with VLAN segmentation, so guest, staff, payment and IoT traffic stay separated
- Firewall and router configuration, including remote access for the people who need it
- Business grade Wi-Fi that hands devices between access points without dropping calls, with per network policies
- CCTV and access control network provisioning, with PoE budgeting done properly
- As built documentation: IP plan, VLAN map, port assignments and credentials handover
How we work
Discover
We survey the site, measure the coverage you actually have, and record what the network has to carry.
Architect
We produce the cabling plan, IP and VLAN scheme and hardware specification, priced per item.
Build
We install and terminate, configure switching, firewall and wireless, then test every port and every corner.
Support
We keep firmware current and remain on call for moves, additions and changes, with the as built pack in your hands.
Technology we use
- Ubiquiti UniFi, TP-Link Omada, Cisco
- Wi-Fi 6 and 6E access points, mesh and controller based
- Firewalls, VLAN isolation, VPN, RADIUS authentication
- Cat6, Cat6A, fibre uplinks, PoE and PoE+ distribution
- Controller dashboards, uptime alerting

Common questions
Can you work in an occupied office without downtime?
Yes. We stage the work so the existing network keeps running, cut over out of hours, and keep the old path available until the new one is verified.
Why does guest Wi-Fi need its own VLAN?
Because a guest device on the same network as your servers and card terminals is one compromised laptop away from being your problem. Segmentation keeps a visitor's device unable to see anything but the internet.
Do you supply the hardware or do we buy it?
Either. We specify exactly what the design needs and you can purchase it directly, or we supply it as part of the installation.
What do we get at handover?
An as built pack: IP addressing plan, VLAN map, labelled port assignments, device inventory and credentials. Any competent engineer can pick it up from there.
