IoT & IIoT Systems

Seven systems in one building

Cabling, networks, computing, security, audio-visual, sensing and building systems share pathways, rooms, power and platforms. Coordinating them as one package is what keeps interfaces from becoming conflicts on site.

01Physical Infrastructure

Risers, cable pathways, structured cabling, racks and protected power run through every floor and terminate in the communications rooms.

Every other system depends on it: networks ride the cabling, computing sits in its racks, and security, AV and IoT end-points draw protected power from it.

02Network Infrastructure

Core and floor switching, the campus backbone, and wireless access points carry traffic between floors, rooms and the outside world.

Connects users to central computing, carries a dedicated security LAN, and gives AV, IoT and building platforms a path to their controllers.

03Servers & Central Computing

Servers, storage and virtualisation sit in the protected computer room at plant level, alongside backup and recovery platforms.

Hosts the management platforms other disciplines rely on, from video management to building management and content control.

04Physical Security & Safety Systems

Fire detection, video surveillance, access control readers and entry control are placed at entrances, circulation routes, the perimeter and critical rooms.

Runs over the security network, records to central platforms, and shares public address and control-room displays with audio-visual systems.

05Audio-Visual Systems

Meeting-room AV, the atrium display, digital signage, background music and public address serve people moving through and working in the building.

Uses the network for IPTV, signage and collaboration, and supports security operations with paging and control-room displays.

06IoT & IIoT Systems

Environmental, occupancy and equipment sensors on each floor and the roof report into building and edge platforms.

Feeds data to building management and central platforms over the network, and can raise events into security and operations workflows.

07Specialised Systems

Building management, control panels and specialised plant systems sit at plant level and in the control room.

Brings readings from sensors, power and mechanical systems together, hosted on central computing and reached over the network.
