THE BRIEF

Evikom delivered telecommunications, fibre and structured cabling infrastructure as part of a major data centre project in Oslo, Norway.

Our team provided installation services across the facility, including Meet Me Room (MMR) and Point of Entry (PoE) infrastructure, fibre networks, primary and secondary containment, perimeter security connectivity, intercom systems, Wi-Fi infrastructure and office structured cabling.

The project also included specialist fibre splicing, testing and integration works across both live and new-build areas of the facility.

Our scope

MMR & PoE InfrastructureCabinet installation and equipment racking within Meet Me Room and Point of Entry areas.
144-Core & 288-Core Fibre InfrastructureInstallation and integration of 144-core fibre originating from the live environment and 288-core fibre from the new construction areas, with fibre splicing completed within the MMR.
Fibre Network & SplicingRibbon fibre splicing of approximately 80,000 fibre cores, fibre running across the required data centre routes, the external fibre network connecting facility buildings, and MaxCell fibre sleeves for internal and external routes.
ContainmentApproximately 2,000 metres of primary containment supporting telecommunications and fibre infrastructure, and secondary containment supporting CCTV and access control systems.
Security, Wi-Fi & Office CablingFibre infrastructure supporting perimeter PTZ camera systems, intercom cabling, Cat6 and Cat6A structured cabling supporting wireless access points, and high-level and low-level structured cabling across office areas.
Testing, Certification & Site ManagementOTDR testing of installed and spliced fibre links, with testing, labelling, verification and certification of installed cabling, and coordination and management of installation teams in line with the wider construction programme.

The challenge

Delivering telecommunications infrastructure while integrating new installations with an existing live data centre environment required careful planning, coordination and technical control.

The project involved the integration of 144-core fibre from the live environment with 288-core fibre serving the new construction areas, with specialist splicing activities carried out within the MMR. The works also included approximately 2,000 metres of primary containment and infrastructure supporting security, intercom, Wi-Fi and office systems.

Working around live infrastructure required particular attention to installation sequencing, access and coordination to minimise disruption while allowing the construction programme to progress.

Evikom coordinated closely with the wider project team to sequence containment, cabling, fibre installation, splicing and testing activities in accordance with project milestones.
