An impenetrable server room and an unstable network
Cabling that had grown over the years and an undocumented server room made maintenance difficult and raised the risk of an outage at exactly the moment the newsroom could least afford one.
- Cabling added to piecemeal over the years, with no documentation
- An unstable network slowing down work with large files and print data
- A disorderly server room, hard to maintain and risky
- The need for reliability during critical deadlines
A solution built to fit

- A complete network , designing and building the whole network, from the structured cabling to the configuration of the network hardware.
- Workstations and peripherals , selecting and supplying workstations and peripherals to match editorial, design and multimedia requirements.
- Setting up the server room , setting up the server room, including installing the servers and organising the equipment.
- Internet and network protection , providing the internet connection and protecting the network.

What we worked with
Real impact for the client
The newsroom works on a stable, fast network, the server room is orderly and maintainable, and deadlines pass without technical trouble.
A reliable, fast connection at every desk sped up work with large files and print data.
A documented, organised server room that can be maintained quickly and safely.
Technology stopped being a risk. The newsroom can concentrate on the content instead of on outages.
We worked with detect as a supplier on various IT projects. They cabled the whole company and connected it to the internet and to the internal network, and they tidied our server room beautifully and made sense of it. They were reliable, willing, pleasant to deal with and very reasonably priced. On our experience, I can warmly recommend them.
