The Challenge

University of Canterbury Science Building and Engineering Building

The University of Canterbury undertook a major redevelopment of its Science and Engineering Buildings, requiring a modern, reliable network infrastructure to support the demands of a large academic and research environment. With thousands of students, staff, and researchers depending on seamless connectivity, the project called for a comprehensive structured cabling and fibre solution across both buildings.

The Solution

Teltrac delivered a full Systimax iPatch structured cabling and fibre installation across both buildings, providing a robust and future-ready network backbone. Alongside the physical infrastructure, Teltrac established an onsite Help Desk to manage project delivery and provide ongoing service support for the University’s day-to-day operational needs.

Key Elements

  • Site-wide Systimax iPatch structured cabling installation across the Science and Engineering Buildings
  • Fibre solutions connecting key network nodes throughout both buildings
  • Onsite Help Desk providing project management and service delivery throughout the installation
  • Ongoing service, support, moves, adds, and changes for the University of Canterbury

Why This Solution

  • Systimax iPatch is a market-leading structured cabling platform trusted in large-scale education and research environments globally
  • A site-wide fibre backbone ensures high-speed, low-latency connectivity across all areas of both buildings
  • An embedded onsite Help Desk minimises disruption by providing immediate, on-the-ground support throughout the project and beyond
  • The solution is designed to scale with the University’s evolving infrastructure needs over time

Installation

Teltrac managed the full installation of structured cabling and fibre across both the Science and Engineering Buildings, coordinating closely with the University to minimise disruption to staff and students. The onsite Help Desk ensured clear communication and fast resolution of any issues throughout the project, keeping the installation on track and on schedule.

Outcome

Both buildings now benefit from a modern, high-performance network infrastructure that supports the University of Canterbury’s academic and research operations. The ongoing onsite Help Desk relationship with Teltrac ensures the University has a trusted partner on hand for all future service, support, and network changes.
