IT & NETWORK ยท NETWORK INSTALLATION

Network installation that’s tested, documented, and actually works on day one

A network installed without proper testing and documentation becomes next year’s mystery outage. We install, configure, test and document every network we touch โ€” so whoever supports it in three years isn’t starting from nothing.

Where it’s used

Built for the environment, not a generic spec sheet

New office fit-outs

Full network installation from the comms room to every desk, ready before day one.

Office relocations

Network installed and tested at the new site before moving day, not scrambled together after.

Network refreshes

Replacing ageing switches and routing with minimal disruption to a live, working office.

Typical investment

How we deliver it

Assess, design, install, support — one team throughout

01

Assess

Site survey or environment review, requirements gathering, budget options.

02

Design

A specification matched to your actual requirement, not the biggest number on a spec sheet.

03

Install & commission

Delivered by our engineers in Scotland, or a vetted local partner, anywhere in the UK โ€” tested and commissioned before we call it done.

04

Handover, training & support

Documentation, formal handover, hands-on training, and optional ongoing management โ€” it@efficient-is.co.uk.

Questions we’re asked most

Answered plainly

Do you install and configure the network, or just supply hardware?

Both โ€” we supply, install, configure and test the network, and hand over full documentation, rather than leaving configuration as a separate exercise.

Can you install a new network without disrupting our current office?

Yes โ€” refresh and relocation projects are typically phased or scheduled out-of-hours specifically to avoid disrupting a live, working office.

What documentation do we get after installation?

A network diagram, IP addressing scheme, VLAN configuration and switch/router configuration backups โ€” everything the next person supporting the network needs.

Have a network, cloud or CCTV project in mind?

Tell us the environment and the outcome you need โ€” we’ll tell you what’s realistic.

More about network installation

Do you provide network installation for public sector or education sites with specific procurement requirements?

Yes. Schools, councils, NHS and other public bodies can order via purchase order, and installation is scheduled around term dates or operational hours where that matters, such as out of hours work in a live office or a phased rollout across a school holiday. Documentation is provided to whatever standard your procurement or IT governance process requires.

What’s the difference between network installation and network design?

Network design is the planning stage: working out the LAN and WAN layout, VLAN segmentation and redundancy before anything is bought. Network installation is putting that design into practice on site: physically installing, configuring and testing the switches, routers and cabling. Many projects need both, run as one engagement, but you can also bring us in for installation alone if the design already exists, whether it’s ours or someone else’s.

Is cable testing and certification included as part of a network installation, or only for structured cabling projects?

Yes. Every cable run installed as part of a network installation project is tested and certified against the relevant Cat6 or Cat6a standard, the same testing carried out on a standalone structured cabling project, with a test report included in the handover documentation.
