Data and Communication Networks
Speak To Us About Your Project
Data & Communication Networks
Evans Electrical designs, installs and supports high-performance data and communications networks that form the backbone of modern buildings. Our structured cabling systems are engineered to deliver reliability, resilience and long-term performance, supporting critical business operations and future technological demands.
We provide complete data infrastructure solutions, from initial design and coordination through to installation, testing, certification and ongoing support. Our networks are designed not just to meet current requirements, but to accommodate future growth, increased data throughput and evolving technologies without unnecessary disruption.
Structured Cabling Systems Built for Longevity
We design and install structured cabling systems using high-quality copper and fibre technologies, supporting voice, data, wireless networks, building management systems, security platforms and specialist applications.
Our services include:
- Copper structured cabling (Cat5e, Cat6, Cat6A and above)
- Single-mode and multi-mode fibre optic networks
- Backbone and horizontal distribution
- Cabinet, rack and containment installation
- Labelling, testing and certification
Every system is installed in accordance with manufacturer guidelines and industry standards to ensure consistent performance and reliability.
Manufacturer-Backed Warranties and Certification
A key differentiator of our data and communications installations is the level of assurance provided through manufacturer-backed system warranties.
We are accredited installers for leading structured cabling manufacturers, including Excel, enabling us to offer 25-year manufacturer system warranties on eligible installations. These warranties cover the complete passive infrastructure, providing long-term confidence in system performance, compliance and compatibility.
To achieve this level of warranty, installations must meet strict criteria, including:
- Approved components from a single manufacturer
- Correct installation methods and routing
- Comprehensive testing of every link
- Full certification and submission to the manufacturer
Our accredited status ensures systems are installed, tested and documented correctly, reducing risk for clients and providing assurance that the infrastructure will support current and future applications over its full design life.
Performance, Reliability and Future Proofing
Structured cabling is a long-term asset. Poor installation or non-certified systems can lead to performance issues, downtime and costly remediation. Our approach ensures networks deliver consistent performance from day one and remain reliable as demands increase.
We design networks with:
- Adequate capacity for future bandwidth requirements
- Clear segregation and containment for resilience and safety
- Logical layout to support expansion and modification
- Compatibility with evolving technologies
This future-focused design reduces the likelihood of early replacement and protects investment over the long term.
Installation Quality and Live Environment Management
Data networks are often installed within live, operational environments where disruption must be minimised. Our teams are experienced in working alongside occupants, IT teams and other contractors to deliver installations safely and efficiently.
Careful coordination ensures:
- Minimal disruption to business operations
- Protection of existing live systems
- Clear communication during cutovers or migrations
Quality control during installation ensures bend radii, separation distances, termination standards and labelling are consistently maintained.
Testing, Documentation and Handover
Every installation is fully tested using calibrated equipment to verify performance against industry standards. Test results, certification and as-built documentation form part of the final handover package.
Clear documentation supports:
- Ongoing maintenance and fault finding
- Future expansion or modification
- Warranty validation and compliance assurance
Where required, we also provide support during commissioning of active equipment and coordination with client IT teams.
Designed for Long-Term Support and Adaptability
Our responsibility does not end at installation. By delivering certified, warrantied systems with clear documentation, we support long-term asset management and reduce the risk of unexpected issues later in the building lifecycle.
Whether delivering a complete new network, upgrading existing infrastructure or expanding capacity, our focus remains on performance, reliability and long-term value.
Why Evans Electrical?
Why choose Evans Electrical for data and communications networks?
We deliver structured cabling systems that are designed, installed and certified to perform reliably over the long term. Our focus is on quality of installation, system resilience and future-proofing, ensuring data infrastructure supports both current operations and future technologies.
Do you offer long-term warranties on data cabling systems?
Yes. As accredited installers for manufacturers such as Excel, we can provide 25-year manufacturer-backed system warranties on eligible installations. These warranties cover the complete passive cabling system and provide long-term assurance of performance, compliance and compatibility.
Why is a 25-year manufacturer warranty important?
A manufacturer-backed warranty confirms that the system has been installed in full accordance with manufacturer standards and industry best practice. It reduces risk, protects investment and provides confidence that the infrastructure will support future applications without performance degradation.
Are your systems fully tested and certified?
Yes. Every installation is fully tested using calibrated test equipment, with certification and detailed test results provided as part of the handover documentation. This certification is a key requirement for manufacturer warranties.
Can data networks be integrated with security systems?
Absolutely. We regularly design and install data infrastructure that supports and integrates with security systems such as CCTV, access control, intruder alarms and video management platforms. Proper network design ensures security systems operate reliably and securely.
Can data networks be integrated with BMS and building systems?
Yes. Our data networks are designed to support Building Management Systems (BMS) and other smart building technologies. We coordinate closely with mechanical and electrical services to ensure network infrastructure is robust, segregated where required and capable of supporting building-wide integration.
Do you work alongside IT teams and system integrators?
Yes. We regularly collaborate with client IT teams, consultants and specialist system integrators to ensure data infrastructure aligns with operational, security and management requirements.
