R&M was tapped to provide the network cabling infrastructure for their renovation as well as construction of new Abu Dhabi Motors building premises.  The project was also crucial as Abu Dhabi Motors connected more than 15 branches to the United Al Saqer Group’s headquarters building.

Abushaban added, “For United Al-Saqer Group’s Head Office, it is critical and essential to have reliable networking infrastructure of both passive and active components in order to successfully execute our business initiatives and enable any current or future data requirements. “

R&M recommended their advanced Cat. 6 copper cabling for connecting the network. Cat. 6 unshielded (Cat.6 U/UTP) cabling was used for horizontal cabling as it is the best option for better connectivity, delivering excellent headroom beyond 500 Mz. Cat. 6 unshielded also supports future bandwidth needs and 10 GB performance.

In terms of network speed, R&M advised Abu Dhabi Motors to deploy Fiber Optics OM3 (FO OM3) allowing users to operate on faster data transmission speeds.  Security level 1 color coding was used for sensitive points for easier reach and use.  This ensures Abu Dhabi Motors not only a robust and high performance network for current needs but the requisite scalability for future data growth without any drop in network performance or speed.  Additionally, FLEXkanals and multifunctional DESKboxes were deployed for maximum user connectivity of various applications.  With R&M solutions, the project is now fully equipped in terms of data transmission speed and optimized network performance.

“The process of building and renovating was challenging as we had to gut certain walls to implement a cabling solution to meet client’s current and future requirements. With our enterprise range, Abu Dhabi Motors now have in place a faultless state of the art network to last for years to come,” stated Alaa Darwish, R&M Sales Manager.
