The project involved the installation of 52 cat6 cable drops in an office setting in Concord and 8 cat6 cable drops in the Kitchener warehouse. The two-man crew of highly specialized structural cabling technicians was deployed for 4 days to complete the work. The details of the work are below: 1. Install 2 Drops for Wireless Access Points 2. Install 50 Drops for Data 3. Install client-provided network cabinet with fire-rated plyboard 4. Install 3 Meraki Switches and patch all the connections to the switch ports 5. Terminate, Test, and Certify all the drops ### **Network Cabinet Installation and Patch to the Meraki Switches** All 52 Cat6 cables were terminated in a patch panel in the network cabinet. 3 counts of 24 ports Cisco Meraki Switches were installed and all the connections were patched as per the instruction from the client. ![rs=w1280-Jun-25-2024-04-56-33-0512-PM](https://www.usorion.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported%20sitepage%20images/rs=w1280-Jun-25-2024-04-56-33-0512-PM.jpg?width=763&height=252&name=rs=w1280-Jun-25-2024-04-56-33-0512-PM.jpg)               * Image of Network Cabinet with 3 switches and patch panel* ### **Network Jack End in Office Area** The below image shows the termination of a few jacks out of 52 drops in the office and warehouse area on site. Each of these jacks was terminated and tested with a Fluke cable certifier. A pdf report was generated and submitted to the client along with a final installation of the report. ![rs=w1280-Jun-25-2024-04-58-01-6133-PM](https://www.usorion.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported%20sitepage%20images/rs=w1280-Jun-25-2024-04-58-01-6133-PM.jpg?width=763&height=310&name=rs=w1280-Jun-25-2024-04-58-01-6133-PM.jpg)         *                                                          Image of a few jacks termination in office area on site.* Please [get in touch](https://www.usorion.com/contact-us-orion-us) with the experts at Orion US today.
