Neutral Network Infrastructure & Smart Buildings
Smart Building Networks: Converged Infrastructure Done Right
Cameras, sensors, access control and Wi-Fi on one network — how to converge safely.

The convergence opportunity
One structured cabling and switching backbone can carry every building system, reducing cost and simplifying maintenance.
Design principles
- Separate VLANs or VRFs for each system
- PoE budgeting for cameras and access points
- Redundant uplinks for critical systems
- Central monitoring of all devices
- Strict firewall rules between systems
Security of IoT devices
Building devices are rarely patched and often ship with weak credentials. Inventory them, change defaults and restrict their network access.
Future-proofing
Plan fibre risers and spare capacity for future sensors, 5G small cells and higher Wi-Fi speeds.
