AVENCOM Responsibility

The objective of the project was the creation of a reliable controllable converged communication network, which is able to provide effective interaction between the geographically dispersed local networks, which became the main complication in this project.

AVENCOM Approach

New equipment and software had to be integrated into the existing central monitoring and network management system. One of the requirements was to switch over for using the new equipment without breaks in communications between the users, as it can cause production losses. As part of the project we inspected the communications network and the objects, which had to be modernized. AVENCOM developed new communications network architecture and procured necessary equipment and software.

Summary

After carrying out factory acceptance tests, our engineers configured the communications network and successfully completed its installation and precommissioning.
