Villa Complex, South of France

Private: Wired Networks

Logistically it was challenging as everything had to be prepped, hardware configured and tested in the UK and then transported to the south of France. The team did an excellent job working across the multiple phases of this project, often against incredibly tight timelines.

The Project

Location: Cannes, France
Sector: Commercial

This was a 2-year construction project for a new luxury residential and commercial villa built in the hills of the south of France. This high-end villa consists of 3 buildings which include living quarters, staff quarters, guest accommodation, two pools and beautifully landscaped grounds.

We were engaged to provide a high-end managed network to support the home AV and security services, home users’ IT and corporate IT network.

Our Solution

The project was completed over multiple phases during a 2 year period. We project managed the delivery of the IT network from start to finish, which encompassed all the other services such as security and Audio visual. We provided:

  • Dual fibre leased line from separate providers to provide complete redundancy.
  • A Watchguard security firewall solution with built-in failover for multi-WAN.
  • A fully managed Cisco core network to support IT, AV and security VLANS.
  • A Ruckus WiFi6 network included 38 Internal and External access points and multiple data cabinet locations, with a fibre backbone network between the data cabinets and diverse routing for redundancy. 
  • A managed power solution for all racks to provide up to 30mins downtime recovery.

Simpli-Fi Favicon
This villa complex in the south of France was a fantastic construction project to work on. The job lasted 2 years from the initial planning phase through to completion. Logistically it was challenging as everything had to be prepped, hardware configured and tested in the UK and then transported to the south of France. The team did an excellent job working across the multiple phases of this project, often against incredibly tight timelines. We were also battling with the multiple restrictions that the Covid pandemic created, but this did not prevent the team from doing an amazing job and leaving our client extremely happy with the results.
