When you need it

When should you call us?

What we do

How we work

The rack is the heart of the infrastructure. A rack that is properly assembled and organized from day one stays readable and maintainable for years. We assemble the rack, install it in place, mount the patch panels, rack-mount equipment and accessories, then organize cable management and power.

We plan the rack layout before mounting anything: position of the patch panels, switches, cable managers and power distribution. Equipment is secured, identified and labeled, cabling is organized vertically and horizontally, and the rack is documented.
