Two Years ago construction started at Vodafone's new Auckland headquarters in the Viaduct Harbour. 14 400 sq metres, 6 storeys, home to over 1200 people and probably around 200 km of structured cabling - Datacable was chosen due to a long standing relationship based on trust, confidence and bottom line - rock solid delivery.
Datacable did this through strong project management, technical knowledge, cost efficiency, flexibility, responsiveness and the team works damn hard.
Datacable's strength lies in its ability to bring a team together, focus it and deliver time and time again. They asserted robust justifications to support the thinking in a way that was succinct, tactful and very clear.
Datacable has been a pleasure to deal with over the years, and I shall look forward to a long continued relationship.

To Whom It May Concern:
Datacable has been the preferred supplier of communication system cabling for British American Tobacco New Zealand for some time now, due their ability to deliver a cost effective, professional service in Auckland as well as all around New Zealand to any of our regional offices.
Datacable recently installed a 450 outlet, certified Dintek CAT 5e structured cabling system in our Auckland corporate head office and we are extremely satisfied with the end result. The supplied equipment is of the highest quality and workmanship as well as very cost effective. It has allowed us to complete the project well within budget without any compromise on performance and quality.
The team from Datacable was very professional and accommodating and completed the project on time with a minimum amount of disruption to our office staff. Even though unforeseen difficulties were encountered during the project they were always willing to come up with a solution that suited us even though it meant working after hours when it was not included in the initial quote.
We intend to use Datacable as well as the Dintek cabling system for all our future installations and would gladly recommend them to anybody that require a high quality, cost effective, communications cabling system they can rely on.”

To Whom It May Concern:
Datacable have been a preferred supplier of data cabling and access layer communications equipment to Linfox Logistics (NZ) Ltd for approximately ten years. Their ability to provide services not only to our Auckland distribution centres but also nationally to our regional DC’s has enabled us to have a single point of contact for our numerous cabling projects – both small and large.
The team at Datacable are professional, friendly and vastly experienced in their field and this is reflected in the workmanship and attention to detail within a job.
In January 2005 Linfox commenced building a new 40,000 sqm Head Office and distribution centre near the Auckland International Airport at Mangere. This development was a major undertaking for Linfox with the consolidation of 4 distribution centres and the national Head Office.
Quotes were sought for the provision of data communications, consisting of diverse fibre optic runs, copper voice cabling, WiFi access point installation, office fit outs with multiple IDF’s and the fit out of a new national data centre. Datacable were awarded this contract based on their competitive pricing, the comprehensive 25 year Dintek warranty and their previous track record.
The work was completed within time and budget and was to the high standard that Linfox have come to expect of Datacable – we are currently extending the complex and intend to use Datacable and Dintek for this installation. I have no hesitation in recommending Datacable to anybody seeking a professional, high quality and cost effective cabling solution.
