FOSS has very extensive experience in designing and installing standards based structured cabling solutions for large enterprises and we have a large customer base throughout the Middle East.

We have successfully delivered solutions across many industry sectors including Finance, Hospitality, Government, Defence, Telecoms and Utilities.  Our certified solutions involve high quality components from leading European and USA manufacturers. We are an approved Value Added Reseller for Commscope Systimax, Uniprise and Brand Rex and have Systems Integrator status for Molex structured cabling solutions.

In addition, we have a large installed base of Intelligent Patching solutions from both CommScope, Systimax, and Molex.

Our design and project management capabilities are supported by BICSI RCDD qualified consultants and we are familiar with designing and implementing business critical solutions that require intrinsic fault tolerant designs that include flexibility and scalability.

We have delivered many Tier 2, 3 and 4 Data Centre solutions that include intelligent software based patching for the next generation of applications and services where control and manageability is a mandatory requirement.

Our design and installation capabilities design cover Cat5E to Cat6A/7, fibre optic cabling from multi-mode OM1, OM2, OM3, OM4, to single-mode OS1 and beyond and we have the engineers and skills to install or upgrade your network.

All our installations come with a full 20 to 25 year warranty backed by our partners Commscope Systimax, Brand Rex and Molex.

Intelligent Infrastructure Management

Our intelligent patching and infrastructure solutions can be installed in your network or Data Centre to enable easy management of your network and throughout your building to create structured solutions for your users. We help you to take control of your communication cabling infrastructure, to bring about reduced costs and improved management.

Intelligent infrastructure management features include the ability to track and document any changes to the patch field and store those changes in a database. Through software, these solutions also offer work order processes that let you input scheduled connectivity changes and guide technicians through the steps.

Another key benefit of intelligent systems is improved security of the physical layer. When changes occur in the connections, the systems can send alerts via various communication methods, including e-mail, cell phones, and pagers. In addition, our intelligent infrastructure management solutions can disable LAN access in the event of an unauthorised connection.

Our solutions can also be integrated with CAD floor or building diagrams to graphically view, update, and physically locate every network connection. This can even include network connectivity maps overlaid on CAD diagrams that are automatically updated when a change occurs.
