Cassius project managers will ensure the execution and control of defined objectives to ensure successful project delivery. Our organisation focuses on allocating equal measures of both process driven and site based project management. It is for this reason that our overall project delivery services are set into two primary categories, Project Management and Site Management. Both are defined below:

Manage the activities in the project plan to ensure milestones and deadlines are met

Communicate progress to project stakeholders (clients, executive mgmt., supervisors and team members)

Resolve problems and identify potential impacts of issues associated with the project

Cross-check the project scope against the project schedule and resource availability

Manage labour and site logistics in order to ensure delivery, within the project timelines, whilst meeting all critical milestones

Ensure that our structured cabling installations meet or exceed the industry standards

In most cases, the task of Project and Site Management is split between multiple resources, a scenario whereby we believe communication to be key. Cassius management play a pro-active role in day to day operations and ensures the channels of communication are open and that fluidity is maintained.

We can provide our clients with multiple infrastructure solutions which will eliminate the hassle of dealing with numerous vendors on a single project.

Often the forgotten component of any network design, your cabling infrastructure can become your biggest headache. Designing and planning a structured cabling plant design for your building or office simplifies management of moves, additions and changes, which comprise a majority of your day-to-day administration headaches and provides you with a reliable infrastructure for data transport. With our expertise in the design and installation of voice and data networks, you can rest assured that your infrastructure solution is giving you the performance it should.

Cassius designs, installs and maintains structured cabling systems (Ethernet, single and multi-mode fiber optic as well as telecoms) based upon the specific needs of your company or business. Our structured cabling system designs:

Integrate with any computer and telephone system to allow for maximum interchangeability and flexibility

Installation services include implementation of any cabling design and our maintenance service extends to providing support for any of our installations as well as non-Cassius installations.

Network and cabling system documentation is generated graphically using Visio or AutoCAD. We can produce professional full color illustrations and documentation. These services include logical network design, cable routing, user outlet referencing, punch block layout, and patch panel systems for any network.

Our infrastructure solutions generally incorporate industry-leading solutions, which when installed, provide the customer with a product warranty. We have experience with most major manufacturers’ products and can accommodate any specific client request. Products include but are not limited to the following:

Many people "install" network cabling, but fail to actually test it. Devices may light up at both ends of the connection, but how do you really know that you're getting 100Mbps or 1000mbps and maybe not 10Mbps? When network problems arise, do you really want to have to worry about the wiring being suspect?

Because of the demanding requirements of today's network infrastructure, the only true way to confirm that your cable infrastructure actually meets the specifications and quality level that you've purchased is to test it. We test and certify all twisted-pair cabling for Category 5e/6 compliance (where applicable). We also test and certify all our fiber optic cabling installations. Once Cassius Group completes an infrastructure installation, you can be assured that your physical infrastructure meets the specs that you paid for.

Cassius stands behind our work with a unique Lifetime Warranty, which states that we warrant the workmanship of our cabling for the lifetime of its installation. Materials are warranted for one (1) year, or the duration of the manufacturers’ warranty, whichever is longer.

These extra levels of detail are part of the reason why there can be such a variance in cabling installation costs. Many customers mistakenly presume that "cabling is cabling" and hire non-qualified or lowest-cost personnel, without the proper tools or training to install sensitive network infrastructure. Network infrastructures require entirely different installation processes than electrical or simple telephone wiring, and we believe that we provide a superior solution that allows the customer to not worry about their cabling infrastructure once it has been installed.

Cassius has expertise with the design of Computer Rooms, Data Centers, Telecommunications Rooms, and Equipment Closets.

Whether it is the design and build of a new data center, expanding an existing data center, upgrading your current data center – each of these project alternatives can be complex, time-consuming, and capital-intensive. Cassius Group’s data center design consultants specialise in the design (not over-design) of data center environments with the capabilities and capacities required to meet today’s needs, while remaining flexible and scaleable enough to grow into tomorrow.

Under-floor air distribution and access floor systems provide numerous advantages to commercial building owners and occupants compared to traditional overhead air distribution systems with “pipe and wire” data, telecommunications, and electrical distribution systems. Under-floor air systems can provide energy savings while improving comfort and indoor air quality in many applications. The additional costs of the access floor system are partially offset by savings in wiring and HVAC installation costs. In buildings where frequent remodeling is required, savings in remodeling costs alone can easily pay for the system. Improvements in occupant health and comfort due to improved indoor air quality can increase employee productivity and company profitability.

Our access flooring division has a team of skilled installers with 15 years experience of access flooring projects. We are proficient installers of a number of manufacturers products and our installation efficiency is second to none.

Upon carrying out a site inspection, we will offer you a product that best suits your environment, budget and schedule.

The specification, installation, and operation of IT environment cooling systems, are the most essential yet least understood of all critical IT environment processes. As the current and emerging IT hardware becomes smaller and uses the same or even more electricity than the equipment it replaced, more heat is being generated in data centers and server rooms. Precision cooling and heat rejection equipment is used to collect and transport this unwanted heat energy to the outside atmosphere.

Cassius Group provides consultation services which take away the headache of choosing the most suitable, energy and cost efficient solution for your space. The various system types and a brief description follows:

This type of system is often referred to as a DX system or split-type system. In an air cooled system half the components of the refrigeration cycle are in the computer room air conditioner (also known as a CRAC unit) and the rest are outdoors in the an cooled condenser.

Self-contained systems locate all the components of the refrigeration cycle in one enclosure that is usually found in the IT environment.

This type of system locates all refrigeration cycle components in one enclosure (like a self-contained system) but replaces the bulky condensing coil with a much smaller heat exchanger.

Water cooled systems are similar to glycol cooled systems in that all refrigeration cycle components are located inside the computer room air conditioner. However, there are two important differences between a glycol cooled system and a water cooled system:

· A water (also called condenser water) loop is used instead of glycol to collect and transport heat away from the IT environment

· Heat is rejected to the outside atmosphere via a cooling tower instead of a fluid cooler.

In a chilled water system the components of the refrigeration cycle are relocated from the computer room air conditioning systems to a device called a water chiller

Large floor mounted systems flow air in a downward direction (down-flow) or an upward direction (up-flow) and some can even flow horizontally (horizontal flow).

· Down-flow systems are used in a raised floor environment or in a non-raised floor environment when system is mounted on a pedestal.

· Horizontal flow systems should be considered for IT consolidations and IT environment renovations using a hot/cold aisle configuration.

· Use recommended in all units. Use mandatory if required by local building codes. Best used in conjunction with IT monitoring and building management systems for quickest notification.

Are commonly located inside precision cooling devices to replace water vapor lost in the cooling process and are used to prevent IT equipment downtime due to static electrical discharge.

· Humidifiers are used in all computer room air conditioners and air handlers unless the room has a properly functioning vapor barrier and central humidification system. The room must have no current high or low humidity-related problems.

Actually add heat to conditioned cold air exiting a precision cooling device to allow the system to provide increased dehumidification of IT environment air when it’s required.

· Reheat systems are used for rooms in warm, humid climates or in rooms with poor or non-existent vapor barriers.

Cassius provides a wide range of UPS solutions, each of which are tailored to meet specific load calculations.

An uninterruptible power supply (UPS), uninterruptible power source or sometimes called a battery backup is a device which maintains a continuous supply of electric power to connected equipment by supplying power from a separate source when utility power is not available.

A UPS is inserted between the source of power (typically commercial utility power) and the load it is protecting. When a power failure or abnormality occurs, the UPS will effectively switch from utility power to its own power source almost instantaneously.

While not limited to any particular type of equipment, a UPS is typically used to protect computers, telecommunication equipment or other electrical equipment where an unexpected power disruption could cause injuries, fatalities, serious business disruption or data loss. UPS units come in sizes ranging from units which will back up a single computer without monitor (around 200 VA) to units which will power entire data centers or buildings (several megawatts). Larger UPS units typically work in conjunction with generators.

Historically, UPS units were very expensive and were most likely to be used on expensive computer systems and in areas where the power supply is interrupted frequently. However, UPS units are now more affordable, and have become an essential piece of equipment for data centers and business computers, but are also used for personal computers, entertainment systems and more.
