Discipline 03 · Networking · Fibre & UTP
The foundation everything runs on.
Automation, cameras, intercom, voice and WiFi are only as reliable as the network beneath them. Gedema designs, installs, tests and certifies the full physical and active layer — fibre backbone, structured cabling, managed switching and site-wide WiFi — so every other system has a foundation it can depend on.
Four layers one architecture.
One partner. One contract. One accountable team never subcontracted.
Backbone
Core fibre between buildings/risers.
OS2 single-mode
OM4 multi-mode
Distribution
MDF / IDF comms cabinets.
Cabinets
Labelling
Horizontal
Cabling to the outlet.
CAT6A
VLAN
QoS
PoE
APs & Devices
What connects at the edge.
WiFi
KNX/cam
KNx
VoIP
Structured cabling
OS2/OM4 fibre and CAT6A UTP — patched, in cabinets, labelled, tested and certified to standard.
Active network
Managed switches with PoE, VLAN and QoS; routers, firewalls and VPN for secure remote access.
Wireless
Site-wide coverage, per-SSID VLAN, captive portal for hospitality, with monitoring and reporting.
Cabling is cheap to do badly and costly to fix.
The network is the one layer you can’t easily rip out later. Done right once, it determines whether every other system runs reliably for the next twenty years. Done as a commodity, it becomes the source of intermittent faults no one can trace.
Built right, once
- Certified cable, tested and documented to standard
- Every run labelled — faults found in minutes, not days
- VLAN segmentation keeps guest, staff and IoT apart
- Headroom designed in — scale without re-cabling
- Monitored remotely — issues caught before users feel them
Done as a commodity
- Interference and packet loss no one can pin down
- Downtime that takes cameras and locks with it
- Flat networks where one breach reaches everything
- Expensive re-runs through finished walls and ceilings
- Guest WiFi complaints that land on the review score
Managed WiFi for hospitality.
Guest SSID
Captive portal, bandwidth limits, usage reporting — a clean arrival experience, fully isolated.
Staff SSID
Authenticated access to operational tools, kept apart from guests and devices.
IoT SSID
Cameras, locks and sensors on their own VLAN — contained, monitored, secure.
