Fast Internet access is essential in today’s business environment. If the connection is slow and unreliable, operations can grind to a halt. This was the problem faced by the Siemens office in Manchester. The new communication infrastructure had to be implemented overnight.
The first step was identifying the requirements
for the new network. A Siemens IT team conducted a survey of the entire
building. This provided a detailed plan of where to position Access Points, how
to set channel allocation, and how to optimize network positioning. Afterwards,
the IT team implemented the planned solution and was able to optimally realize
the desired changes. 70 SCALANCE W786 Access Points and Industrial Ethernet
FastConnect cables were installed. From the FastConnect cables to the connectors
to the Access Points, all of the hardware used was from
Siemens.
“In our tests, the SCALANCE W786 network lived up to its reputation of being exceptionally rugged industrial technology, both physically and technically”
Andy Kelly, Account Director at Atos
With a five-year warranty, the SCALANCE W786 provides both peace of mind and cost savings for any company ready to upgrade.
Once installed, the wireless networks are the proof for rugged, reliable performance.
Additionally, Siemens reduced the costs by more than half by deploying dual-purpose Industrial Ethernet FastConnect cables.
The Siemens office in Manchester supports customers in the fields of Industry Automation & Drive Technologies, Rail Systems, Transmission & Distribution, and Global Shared Services in the North West of England.
