Information and Communication Technology

Including low-current, security and access control

ICT covers the low-current layer of a project: the networks, servers and storage that carry its data, the cabling that connects them, and the security systems that protect the site. We track these packages and the people who specify them.

Fibre optic and copper cables, close up
