About the Project

Ampsail, a construction and development contractor, was tasked with delivering a modern, multi-use building in Barking—Crown House, comprising newly built residential apartments and ground-floor retail units. As part of the development’s life safety and building management systems, there was a need for a robust network infrastructure to support both CCTV surveillance and access control (AC) systems across the entire site.

To meet these requirements, Ampsail engaged Varciti to design and install a reliable and scalable data backbone to ensure the successful deployment and future-proofing of these critical systems.

Our Solution

Varciti provided a complete end-to-end service—from design and planning through to installation, testing, and commissioning—of a structured Cat6 cabling network to serve as the backbone for both CCTV and access control.

Key Deliverables:

  • Structured Network Design:
    We carried out detailed site assessments and developed a tailored Cat6 cabling plan that met the coverage and performance requirements for all areas of the building, including residential corridors, lift lobbies, main entrances, and external areas.
     
  • Cat6 Cabling Installation:
    High-performance Cat6 cabling was installed throughout the site to provide fast and reliable connectivity for IP-based CCTV and AC hardware. Routing was designed to maintain neatness, accessibility, and serviceability without compromising the building’s aesthetics.
     
  • Commissioning and Handover:
    Upon completion, all cabling and termination points were tested to ensure performance and compliance. The network was fully commissioned and delivered ready for integration by the security systems team.
     
  • Collaborative Delivery:
    Varciti worked closely with Ampsail’s project managers and subcontractors to align with the wider construction schedule, avoiding delays and ensuring smooth project progression.

Client Impact

With the network infrastructure delivered by Varciti, Ampsail successfully completed the deployment of Crown House’s security systems on time and to specification. The site now benefits from a modern, high-performance backbone that supports the safety, security, and future technology needs of both residents and commercial occupants.
