Network Design & Architecture

Scalable, resilient network architectures designed from the ground up — from single-site SMEs to multi-site enterprise deployments.

About This Service

Quatech's network architects produce complete, implementation-ready network designs tailored to your organisation's size, traffic patterns, and security requirements. We apply proven frameworks including Cisco's hierarchical three-tier model and SD-WAN principles, working across LAN, WAN, and campus environments.

Every engagement begins with a discovery phase that maps your current estate, identifies pain points, and captures growth plans. Outputs include full topology diagrams, IP addressing schemes, hardware recommendations, and a phased delivery plan.

Our designs prioritise redundancy, security segmentation, and long-term manageability — networks built to last.

Wireless & Structured Cabling

From RF site surveys to physical cabling infrastructure — we deliver the connectivity backbone your operations depend on.

About This Service

Quatech delivers end-to-end wireless and physical cabling solutions for offices, campuses, warehouses, and multi-floor commercial buildings. Our wireless engineers conduct professional RF surveys before any deployment, ensuring coverage, capacity, and roaming performance are right first time.

Our structured cabling teams install Cat6/6A copper and single/multi-mode fibre to standards including TIA-568 and ISO/IEC 11801, with full documentation and certification testing on every installation.

We work with leading vendors including Cisco Meraki, Ubiquiti, HPE Aruba, and CommScope, recommending the right fit for your environment and budget.

Predictive and post-installation RF site surveys

WLAN design for high-density and roaming environments

Service Procedures

01

Site Survey & Assessment

A physical walkthrough and RF survey identifies coverage requirements, wall attenuation, interference sources, and access point placement candidates.

02

WLAN & Cabling Design

Access point placement plans, channel and power configurations, and cabling routes are designed and documented before any installation work begins.

03

Infrastructure Installation

Cabling is installed to standard, containment fitted, and access points, switches, and patch panels mounted and connected.

04

Certification Testing

Every copper and fibre run is tested with a Fluke DSX or equivalent certified tester. Failing links are remedied before sign-off.

05

Wireless Validation

A post-installation RF walkthrough validates coverage, signal strength, and roaming behaviour against agreed acceptance criteria.

06

Documentation & Handover

As-built drawings, cable schedules, test reports, and equipment configuration files are compiled and handed over to the client.

Network Services / Operations

NOC & Network Monitoring

24/7 visibility into your network estate — proactive fault detection, automated alerting, and rapid response before issues affect your users.

About This Service

Quatech's Network Operations Centre (NOC) provides continuous monitoring of your network infrastructure, detecting performance degradation, device failures, and connectivity issues before they escalate into outages. We use industry-standard tools including PRTG, Zabbix, and Grafana to deliver real-time dashboards and actionable alerts.

Our monitoring service covers routers, switches, firewalls, wireless controllers, servers, and cloud-hosted services. When an alert fires, our team investigates immediately — most issues are resolved remotely without user impact.

Monthly performance reports give you clear visibility of uptime, bandwidth utilisation, and fault trends, supporting capacity planning decisions.

24/7 infrastructure monitoring (ICMP, SNMP, syslog)

Real-time alerting via email, SMS, and escalation paths

Bandwidth and interface utilisation reporting

Device availability and uptime dashboards

Monthly performance and fault trend reporting

Remote fault investigation and resolution

Service Procedures

01

Onboarding & Discovery

We inventory your devices, configure SNMP community strings, syslog forwarding, and integrate your estate into the monitoring platform.

02

Baseline & Threshold Setting

Normal traffic patterns are observed and documented. Alert thresholds are set against your agreed baselines to minimise false positives.

03

Continuous Monitoring

24/7 polling of all monitored devices. Alerts are generated immediately when a device goes offline or a threshold is breached.

04

Alert Triage & Investigation

Every alert is triaged by our NOC team. Genuine faults are investigated remotely, with escalation to on-site support where required.

05

Incident Resolution & Logging

Resolved incidents are logged with root cause analysis. Recurring faults are flagged for preventive action.

06

Monthly Reporting

A monthly report is delivered covering uptime statistics, bandwidth trends, fault summary, and recommendations for improvement.

VPN & Network Security Audits

Secure remote access solutions and in-depth network security reviews — closing the gaps before attackers find them.

About This Service

Quatech delivers two complementary network security services: secure VPN and remote access infrastructure, and independent network security audits. Together they ensure your workforce can connect safely and your network perimeter is hardened against external and internal threats.

Our VPN solutions cover site-to-site IPsec tunnels, SSL/TLS remote access (OpenVPN, WireGuard, Cisco AnyConnect), and zero-trust network access (ZTNA) models. Our security audits review firewall rule sets, ACLs, open ports, exposed services, routing protocol security, and segmentation effectiveness.

Findings are delivered in plain-language reports with a risk-rated remediation plan, prioritised by exploitability and business impact.

Service Procedures

01

Scope & Rules of Engagement

We agree the audit scope, authorised IP ranges, and testing windows in writing before any assessment activity begins.

02

Network Discovery

Passive and active discovery using Nmap, traceroute, and SNMP to map the live network topology and identify all reachable devices and services.

03

Firewall & ACL Review

Firewall rule sets and router ACLs are reviewed against the principle of least privilege. Overly permissive rules, shadow rules, and legacy entries are flagged.

04

Segmentation & Exposure Testing

VLAN hopping, routing policy, and inter-zone traffic flow tests verify that segmentation is effective and that sensitive zones are correctly isolated.

05

VPN Configuration Review

Existing VPN configurations are reviewed for weak cipher suites, key lengths, authentication methods, and split-tunnelling policy.

06

Report & Remediation Plan

A risk-rated report is delivered covering all findings, evidence, business impact, and a prioritised remediation plan. A remediation verification re-test is included.
