High-Performance IT Passive Cabling and Enterprise Audio-Visual Infrastructure Across Bangalore and Pune

Siemens Industry Software (India) Private Limited operates advanced engineering, product lifecycle management (PLM), simulation, and digital manufacturing centers in Bangalore and Pune. These facilities support global development teams working on next-generation design software, industrial automation platforms, digital twin environments, and cloud-based engineering tools. To support these complex digital workloads, Siemens required a robust and standardized IT passive cabling system coupled with an enterprise-grade audio-visual ecosystem optimized for engineering collaboration and customer demonstrations.

Orchids Network & Systems (I) Pvt. Ltd. was entrusted with modernizing the physical network layer and transforming collaboration spaces across both locations, enabling Siemens to achieve higher performance, better reliability, and seamless communication across global teams.

Project Objective

Siemens needed a unified, high-bandwidth passive cabling infrastructure capable of supporting heavy engineering applications such as CAD, CAE, PLM systems, simulation tools, large file rendering, and cloud-integrated digital manufacturing platforms. Additionally, Siemens required a state-of-the-art audio-visual setup to support hybrid meetings, technical presentations, training workshops, engineering reviews, and customer engagement sessions.

The objective was to create a technology backbone that enhances productivity, ensures low latency, and aligns with Siemens’ global standards for digital engineering environments.

Engineering-Optimized Structured Cabling Framework

Orchids deployed a high-performance structured cabling system using CAT6A shielded copper for high-speed workstation connectivity across development zones, engineering clusters, testing bays, and collaborative pods. Shielding ensured protection from electromagnetic interference commonly found in hardware testing environments.

A multi-tiered fiber backbone was implemented to interconnect communication rooms, engineering labs, and server clusters with minimal signal loss. This design ensured stable network performance for compute-intensive engineering workloads, high-volume file transfers, and integration with Siemens’ global PLM and simulation platforms.

All cable routes were engineered with controlled containment, optimized bend radii, and RCDD-compliant pathway design. Comprehensive certification ensured adherence to ISO and TIA standards, guaranteeing infrastructure longevity and predictable performance across both Bangalore and Pune campuses.

Enterprise Audio-Visual Infrastructure for Technical Collaboration

Siemens required a collaboration environment that could support highly technical discussions, 3D design reviews, multi-location engineering workshops, and executive presentations. Orchids implemented a sophisticated AV solution across conference rooms, innovation labs, training centers, and customer demonstration suites.

The AV deployment included intelligent displays, high-fidelity conferencing systems, beam-forming microphone arrays, acoustic optimization, centralized control processors, and secure wireless presentation systems. Each room was calibrated for clarity, low echo, and seamless connectivity to Siemens’ collaboration platforms.

This ecosystem enabled engineering teams to visualize complex designs, present simulation results effectively, and collaborate efficiently with stakeholders across global Siemens offices.

Synchronized Multi-Campus Execution

With operations in both Bangalore and Pune running continuously, the deployment required precise coordination to avoid disruptions. Orchids executed the implementation through a controlled, multi-phase schedule, ensuring that engineering operations, customer meetings, and project timelines were not impacted.

Both campuses received identical infrastructure architecture, documentation standards, labeling conventions, and certification processes. This ensured consistent management, easier troubleshooting, and uniform IT governance across locations.

A dedicated project management framework oversaw progress tracking, quality validation, compliance reviews, and stakeholder coordination, enabling full alignment with Siemens’ internal standards and operational expectations.

Security, Compliance, and Audit Integration

The infrastructure was designed in accordance with Siemens’ global IT policies, including security segmentation, data governance guidelines, and audit-ready documentation protocols. Cabling pathways and AV system integrations were mapped for secure network segregation, restricted access, and traceable change management.

Comprehensive test reports, as-built diagrams, rack and patch panel layouts, and fiber certification documents were handed over as part of the final compliance package.

Outcome and Measurable Impact

Siemens’ Bangalore and Pune centers now operate on a future-ready passive cabling foundation engineered for engineering workloads, collaborative design, and digital manufacturing platforms. Network latency reduced significantly, enabling faster simulation cycles, smoother PLM operations, and improved system responsiveness.

The AV infrastructure transformed collaboration quality, enabling sharper design reviews, more engaging customer presentations, and reliable hybrid meetings. The standardized system enhances communication across teams and strengthens Siemens’ global engineering integration.

The infrastructure supports emerging technologies such as digital twins, cloud-based PLM, advanced simulation workloads, and AI-driven engineering analytics.
