Branch Technologies Ltd is pleased to announce the completion of the latest phase of an ongoing project for Cable & Wireless.

The project commissioned by Cable & Wireless on behalf of Royal and Sun Alliance was to implement and enhance their adoption of VoIP for their Pearl Centre campus near Peterborough. The installation was designed to address the requirements of 800 staff, via a 2600 point CAT6 UTP Brand-Rex installation. Spread over two buildings, supporting four new comms rooms (all built by Branch) the implementation featured OM3 50/125 Multimode fibre links x 240 between all comms rooms and server room; all with built in resilience and failover for the Cisco 6500 equipment.

Colin Pyatt of the RSA stated: "I pass on my thanks to you [Branch Technologies] and your teams for their efforts in the delivery at Peterborough. All parties involved have commented on the professionalism and exemplary attitude and approach displayed throughout the project by all Branch staff. This certainly gives RSA a high degree of confidence for forthcoming projects..."

Kelvin Ager, Managing Director of Branch Technologies commented: "Delivering exactly what the customer needs, within an agreed brief, to budget and on time is fundamental to the ethos of Branch Technologies". "We now look forward to commencing the next C&W / RSA project and to the opportunity to promote Branch's additional Realtime Environmental Management solution (www.rementerprise.co.uk)" he added.
