Sharp Packaging Systems

When Sharp Packaging brought operations together in a new building, the network and communications had to be ready for the people moving into it. The challenge was bigger than connecting equipment: construction, training and daily work all had to come together.

ITAM coordinated more than 400 CAT6 cables, 96 fiber terminations and 31 wireless access points, along with paging, a 75-seat training room and content sharing for six meeting rooms.

WORKPLACE & INFRASTRUCTURE / THE PROJECT

A building ready
for the people inside.

Infrastructure, communication and collaboration spaces were planned as parts of one functioning workplace, with close coordination across the construction schedule.

01 / THE CONNECTED FOUNDATION

What has to work
before day one?

The installation included structured cabling and fiber, wireless coverage and the equipment that supports daily communications. More than 400 CAT6 runs, 96 fiber terminations and 31 access points represent a substantial behind-the-scenes effort.

Those numbers mattered because the people moving into the facility needed dependable connectivity from the start—not a collection of unfinished systems to work around.

02 / OPERATIONS & OCCUPANCY

Can the whole facility
work as one?

The industrial floor, office areas and shared spaces all depended on different parts of the same infrastructure. Paging, a 75-seat training room and presentation sharing in six meeting rooms supported the work happening across the building.

ITAM coordinated the installation alongside the construction trades so the network and AV systems could be completed as the building moved toward occupancy.
