Silverstone IT Cabling Contractor

When Silverstone Race Circuit was awarded the British Grand Prix contract in 2009 for the next 10 years – there was surely going to be an upgrade plan. A new Pits & Paddock development was to be built in time for the 2011 Grand Prix and ICS were appointed as the IT cabling contractor for the project.

As the incumbent IT Cabling supplier ICS were awarded the project under a “Design & Build” contract and worked with Silverstone IT, Main Contractor and the Electrical Contractor on the design and installation of a new Cat6 cabling system. The system was supported by Single & Multi Mode Fibre Optic links that extend out of the new development and indeed throughout the entire circuit.
