Music industry giant Sony has installed new network equipment at its London headquarters.
The infrastructure has been supplied by cabling manufacturer Tyco Electronics' AMP NetConnect Business Unit.
Installed by Matrix IP, the new system encompasses VoIP, access control, CCTV, video conferencing, wireless networking and uninterruptable power supplies.
The upgrade follows Sony Music Entertainment UK's move from its Fulham and Hammersmith offices to a new building in Kensington High Street.
Sony changed location after integrating the Columbia, RCA and Epic record labels.
The new network solution uses Cat7 F/FTP cables, which is capable of supporting data transmission of up to 10Gbps.
Sony originally looked at using a Cat7 shielded system that would offer similar performance, but discarded the decision because of cost implications.
The company has also used a Cisco switching solution which can deliver both 1Gbps power over Ethernet as well.
Last month, Key Digital introduced its new Fat Cat digital video cabling which supports Cat7 standards.
