Design prior to construction

We survey the space, design the layout and validate it with you before running the first cable.

Point-based certification

Each socket is measured and receives a report, compared against the limits of the contracted category.

Management and documentation

A record is kept of what is connected to each port — and why. The network no longer relies on memory.

Switching and PoE power supply

Equipment sized for what the network will support, not for what costs less today.

Structured cabling

with certification included business networks

We install and certify CAT6 and CAT6A structured cabling systems, using Fluke equipment for certification and providing a point-to-point test report. Each project includes a preliminary survey, a cable routing plan, rack assembly and organisation, the labelling of all sockets, and performance testing.

We have already certified installations comprising 456 network points in public buildings and laid 6,000 metres of cabling in a data centre. We work in occupied buildings, phasing the work so that operations are not disrupted.

At the end, you will receive the full set of documentation: a network map, certification reports and a warranty for the installation.

A well-designed network is invisible: everything just works, every day. A makeshift network costs money — slow speeds, connection drops and lost team hours. DataRoad designs your local network architecture to suit your company’s operations: scaled to meet your current needs, ready to grow in the future, and fully documented so that you never have to rely on anyone’s memory.

Network cables connected to a communications rack

We install certified structured cabling — Category 6, 6A, 7 and fibre optic — including design, testing and a warranty. For a decision-maker, this means one simple thing: an infrastructure that supports the company’s growth over the next 15 years, without the need for repeat works or budget surprises.

Not all sites are connected by cable — warehouses, industrial units or separate buildings are connected via professional wireless bridges. Our certified technicians select the right technology for each situation and ensure a stable and secure connection between all your company’s sites.

Computer networks for companies

A robust computer network is much more than just well-laid cables: it’s certified structured cabling, business-grade Wi-Fi scaled to the real workload, well-configured switching and firewalls, and a documented framework that any technician can understand. It’s this set — designed, installed according to standard, and tested at the end — that distinguishes a professional network from one that works until the day the workload increases.

Measured certification

Every point is tested with certification equipment and supplied with a report.

Cat6A and fibre

Copper to the workstations, fibre between racks and floors.

Tidy chassis

Patch panels, labelling and cable management — for whoever comes next.

Documented

Floor plan showing socket numbering, handed over to the client at the end of the project.

Why certification matters

A badly terminated cable works. It connects, transfers files, nobody complains — until there is serious traffic, CCTV, PoE or a meeting with everyone on the same switch. That is when frame errors, intermittent drops and the wild goose chase for a problem nobody can reproduce appear. The certification test measures attenuation, crosstalk and length on each pair, and states, socket by socket, whether the installation complies with the standard. Without that report, the network is unproven.

What we installed

Cat6A copper cabling

Network points for workstations, printers, access points and cameras, with two points per workstation.

Fibre optic

Connection between backrooms, floors and buildings, with fusion splicing and optical measurement boxes.

Behind the scenes and energy

Sized, ventilated and enclosed rack, with patch panels, cable managers and UPS.

PoE switch

Managed PoE switches for access points, cameras and phones.

Guttering and infrastructure

Cable routes, trunking and chases, carried out with the minimum amount of building work possible.

Video Surveillance

Cabling and points for IP cameras, over the same infrastructure.

How a construction project runs

1

Survey
Space visit, plants and number of points per zone.

2

Design and budget
Route, quantities and deadlines, with the price fixed before starting.

3

Execution
Routing, termination and rack assembly, phased so as not to interrupt operations.

4

Certification
Measurement of all points and delivery of the report and the numbered plan.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the certification charged separately?

No. It is included — an installation without a certification report is not a finished installation.

How many points per workstation?

Two, as a rule. It costs slightly more during construction and avoids desktop switches and cables all over the floor a year down the line.

Can it be done while the office is operating?

Yes, in phases and with the noisier work done outside normal hours. It's the most common scenario.

Do you work on new builds or only existing spaces?

In both. In new builds it's cheaper and cleaner, because you work alongside the builder instead of fixing things afterwards.

Do you certify wiring installed by others?

Yes. We measure and deliver the report with the actual state — it is common to find installations that pass a basic test and fail certification.

Qual a diferença entre cablagem Cat6 e Cat6A?

A Cat6 suporta 1 Gbps até 100 metros e 10 Gbps apenas em distâncias curtas. A Cat6A mantém 10 Gbps nos 100 metros completos e protege melhor contra interferências, por isso é a nossa recomendação para escritórios novos, pontos de acesso Wi-Fi alimentados por PoE e redes que vão crescer. A DataRoad instala e certifica ambas.

O que inclui o relatório de certificação?

Cada tomada é medida com equipamento Fluke e recebe relatório ponto a ponto, comparado com os limites da categoria contratada (Cat6 ou Cat6A). Ficam entregues o relatório, a identificação de todas as tomadas e a documentação do bastidor.

Quanto custa instalar cablagem estruturada numa empresa?

O valor depende do número de pontos, das distâncias, dos caminhos de cabo e do tipo de edifício, por isso o orçamento fecha-se depois de um levantamento no local, sem compromisso. A DataRoad fica responsável pela manutenção e gestão da rede instalada, no âmbito do contrato IT Unlimited, com preços desde 395 € por mês (+ IVA): ver preços.

A DataRoad instala um único ponto de rede?

Não. Trabalhamos projetos de maior dimensão (escritórios, armazéns, hotéis, clínicas e instalações com várias divisões), para empresas com mais de 10 postos de trabalho e contrato de assistência.

Quanto tempo dura uma cablagem estruturada certificada?

Uma cablagem bem projetada, instalada e certificada deve suportar o crescimento da empresa durante cerca de 15 anos, sem obras repetidas. É a camada de rede que menos se substitui, por isso compensa dimensioná-la para o futuro.

A DataRoad faz instalações fora de Lisboa?

Sim. A sede é em Alfragide, com assistência em todo o país. O levantamento é feito no local e a gestão posterior combina suporte remoto, local e telefónico.

Cablagem estruturada premium

Cablagem estruturada certificada, do Cat 6A ao Cat 8

A DataRoad projeta e instala cablagem de cobre e fibra ótica para escritórios, hotéis, clínicas, armazéns e embaixadas, dimensionada para o que a rede vai suportar daqui a dez anos. Cada ponto é medido e certificado, e a obra é executada por técnicos seniores com experiência em projetos de dimensões e setores muito diferentes.

Técnicos seniores

Quem projeta e instala é quem tem anos de obra: sabe onde as redes falham e como evitar que falhem.

Point-based certification

Cada tomada é medida com equipamento de certificação, comparada com os limites da categoria contratada e entregue com relatório.

Experiência em muitos projetos

11 anos de mercado e 232 empresas servidas, de embaixadas e hotéis a clínicas, escritórios e armazéns.

Que categoria escolher: Cat 6, Cat 6A, Cat 8 ou fibra

MeioLargura de bandaDébitoDistância máximaIndicado para
Cat 6250 MHz1 Gbit/s (10 Gbit/s até 55 m)100 mPostos de trabalho sem exigências futuras de débito
Cat 6A500 MHz10 Gbit/s100 mEscolha recomendada para postos, Wi-Fi 6 e 7, PoE e videovigilância
Cat 8 (Classe I)2000 MHz25 e 40 Gbit/s30 mLigações curtas de alto débito: servidores, switches e bastidor a bastidor em salas técnicas e datacenters
Fibra ótica (OM4 e OS2)n/a10 a 100 Gbit/s ou maisCentenas de metros (OM4) a vários quilómetros (OS2)Ligações entre bastidores, pisos e edifícios

O Cat 8 é blindado, limitado a 30 metros e exige componentes e terminação compatíveis de ponta a ponta. Para postos de trabalho e Wi-Fi, o Cat 6A continua a ser a escolha certa. Recomendamos a categoria pelo uso real da rede, não pelo valor mais alto do catálogo.

Como executamos uma obra de cablagem

  1. Levantamento e projetoVisita ao local, traçado, escolha da categoria e plano de pontos validado consigo antes do primeiro cabo.
  2. Instalação segundo normaCablagem, patch panels e bastidor instalados de acordo com as normas ISO/IEC 11801 e EN 50173.
  3. Certificação e relatórioCada ponto é medido (atenuação, diafonia, perda de retorno) e entregue com relatório individual.
  4. Documentação e gestãoPlanta com a numeração das tomadas e rede documentada. A DataRoad fica responsável pela manutenção e gestão da rede instalada, em contrato IT Unlimited.

Frequently asked questions about structured cabling

Vale a pena instalar Cat 8 num escritório?

Na maioria dos casos, não. O Cat 6A garante 10 Gbit/s a 100 metros em cada posto. O Cat 8 só se justifica em ligações curtas de alto débito, até 30 metros, entre servidores e switches.

Qual é a diferença entre testar e certificar uma rede?

O teste confirma que há ligação. A certificação mede os parâmetros do cabo face aos limites da categoria contratada e entrega um relatório por ponto, que prova que a rede cumpre a norma.

Quem executa a obra?

Técnicos seniores da DataRoad, com experiência em projetos de vários setores. A DataRoad responsabiliza-se pela instalação e pela manutenção e gestão da rede instalada.

Instalam cablagem para um único ponto de rede?

Não. A DataRoad trabalha projetos de maior dimensão, para empresas com mais de 10 postos e em contrato de assistência.
