Cloggie Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 In a few weeks we will move to a new office. I have seen it and I was very surprised to see no network and no telephone connection whatsoever... Basically I have 4 walls, 2 floors and a roof but NO power, telephone or internet... It's a 15 * 20 meter office ( two floors) with only 2 power sockets at each floor and I need to put in at least 10 desks with telephone, computer, monitor, local printers, network printers, faxes etc... at each floor. Minimum requirement : 5 power outlets, 1 telephone, 1 network connection per user As I have been told it must look professional I look for the following cable management conduit - see attachment. Somebody can point me in the right direction where I can buy something like this or similar. Thanks for your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichCor Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 wifi for network? I heard Edison was working on delivering electrical wirelessly. I wonder how that's coming along. I was going to suggest IP Phones, but they need power. Cloggie, Do you have any nice new businesses nearby that have installed powered/cabled cubicles? They should be able to recommend a source. Getting a good design/installer company (that also has certified electricians) is always a challenge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
innerspace Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Are you looking to install yourself or hire someone? If the latter would suggest aiming sights lower and find an electrician who can do it and let them suggest the trunking they can work with. Cant think offhand of many places with that quality trunking...most is just rectangle trunk and boxes on the end. Spoke with one company a while back, in the village on suk, seemed good and that line of stuff but never checked it out. Wifi, maybe router in client mode per table would help on net and phones and limit the amount of cabling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dddave Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 I was in HOME-PRO (Ploen Chit) yesterday and was surprised at the range of electrical devices they had. I didn't see the specific conduit you pictured but i wasn't looking for it either. Worth checking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloggie Posted August 2, 2015 Author Share Posted August 2, 2015 Thanks for all the comments but I was actually looking for a company to install it as I do not have the time to do it myself. Will have a look at Home-Pro as I pass that everyday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2fishin2 Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 wifi for network? Difficult because walls and floors are too thick Wifi would not be difficult at all for wireless devices. Wireless Router on floor where cable comes into building and wireless access point on the other floor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could install some of these on the ceiling in choice locations; connect via Ethernet cable, power with POE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloggie Posted August 6, 2015 Author Share Posted August 6, 2015 I prefer not to install a wireless network when I have 30 desktop PC's in the office, besides that I then also need to buy 30 wireless network cards... In general I just look for a company that can install a professional network with 220V, CAT6 and telephone cables in cable trays (220V separated from CAT6 and telephone) - see pictures post Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just putting out your wireless options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
