Landmark Skyscraper with the "Need For Everything"

• 235,000 square feet containing a commercial headquarters and retail space
• Headquarters for a global company that owns a family of different companies.

• Alex, IT director, was the visionary for the network infrastructure.

Having just finished cabling a large arena, Alex saw the limitations of a traditional in-building network. The amount of copper cabling and cable trays in a legacy infrastructure could not satisfy the in-building wireless connectivity needs of employees and provide the ideal experience for guests. She realized there had to be a better way.
