### In this article

For a company that sells real-time information, every minute offline is a minute in which clients can no longer see their assets. In 2019, **WWIL – Quatenus** entrusted DataRoad - IT Services and Consulting with the network for its new office. The result: **100 CAT6 network points**, switching for all of them, a Security Gateway with dual internet connections and 5 GHz Wi-Fi AC, with every point labelled and every device configured.

## Who is Quatenus?

The name comes from Latin and means "where is it?". Quatenus develops and sells real-time monitoring, control and management products, with geo-referenced data, for any kind of fixed or mobile asset. It has offices in Portugal, Brazil, Angola, Mozambique, the Republic of the Congo and South Africa. [Visit quatenus.com](https://www.quatenus.com).

| Client | Quatenus (WWIL) |
| Year | 2019 |
| Size | 100 CAT6 network points |
| Activity | Geo-referenced monitoring (businesses and offices) |

## Which risks did this network have to eliminate?

Two. The failure of an internet operator, which would leave the whole office at a standstill, and an unlabelled installation, which turns every fault into a hunt for the right cable. The project solved both from the ground up.

## What did DataRoad install?

- **Cabling** Full termination, with 100 CAT6 points.
- **Labelling** Every point labelled in the rooms and at the rack.
- **Switching** Network switches to serve the 100 points.
- **Redundant perimeter** A Security Gateway protecting the network and failing over between two operators: if one link drops, the other keeps the office working.
- **Wi-Fi** 5 GHz AC access points distributed across the space.
- **Go-live** Routers, switches and other equipment connected, configured and brought into service.

## What happens after installation?

The network is not left to chance. DataRoad supports the infrastructure it builds with proactive monitoring, alarms and availability reports. The team combines certifications from several manufacturers with hands-on experience in networks, security, support and IT estate management.

Thank you to Quatenus for its trust in our consultancy, installation and network management.
