Scope of Works
The following information outlines a proposal to provide residents at Hall Place 1Gig internet service through the
installation of fibre optic via a series of switches and cable solution, routed through the buildings to each
individual apartment.
This document includes a proposal of how the installation would be completed within the buildings.
Hyperoptic will deliver a fibre connection from the local telephone exchange directly to our cabinet within your
block. As multiple cabinets are required, Hyperoptic will build a fibre optic cable backbone (spine) to support a
number of other cabinets to ensure all residents can receive service.
When the cable is to pass through an area that has been fire sealed, a sufficient sized hole will be made which
will be resealed with a fully approved product, which has been specially developed to meet the fire performance
requirements and ensure the integrity of the building.
Hyperoptic commit to ensuring that all Passive Fire Stopping undertaken on a site will be carried out by fully
trained operatives using the correct products and techniques.
All Operatives will be fully trained in the techniques of Passive Fire Stopping and, instructed on the full use of
Intumescent products in accordance with the manufactures data sheets.
Operatives will be supported and advised by their accredited Installer who will provide a level of supervision.
Internal periodic audits will be carried out by the accredited installer to ensure that standards are being
maintained.

Cabling installation
The cabling will be installed from the Hyperoptic cabinets to the individual apartments, utilising the existing
building infrastructure. This will include the service utility risers, existing containment, ceiling voids and tray work.
Blocks Edward House, Churchfield House, Campbell House and 1-10 Philip Court are of the same type
and will require abseil from the ground floor cab upwards.
Blocks Hethpool House, Crompton House, Cuthbert House and 11-26 Philip Court will require core
drilling through all the stairwells above the electrical cupboards and then fit 2 inch Galvanised trunking
straight up the stairwells to all floors then cabling will be clipped at high level outside each flat following
existing cable routes.
Braithwaite Tower and Hall Tower are identical and the cabling will be routed externally following the
existing IRS routes
All cabling on blocks John Aird will require abseil this includes all fibres to cabinets.
Below outlines how each block will be cabled.
