Integrated IT Passive Cabling, Audio-Visual, Computing, and Network Hardware Infrastructure Across Bangalore, Delhi, and Pune
Avnet India Pvt. Ltd., a global leader in electronic components distribution, design solutions, and technology supply chain innovation, operates high-performance corporate and engineering environments across Bangalore, Delhi, and Pune. These centers support design engineering teams, supply-chain integration workflows, enterprise sales operations, global collaboration functions, and technical consulting initiatives for semiconductor and embedded systems clients worldwide.
To enhance operational efficiency and accelerate digital transformation, Avnet required a fully modernized technology backbone spanning passive cabling, audio-visual systems, workplace computing, and network hardware, aligned with global Avnet standards and capable of supporting high-density digital operations.
Orchids Network & Systems (I) Pvt. Ltd. was chosen to deliver an integrated infrastructure upgrade that establishes reliability, scalability, and uniform performance across all Avnet India locations.
Project Objective
The objective was to create a unified digital foundation that supports engineering collaboration, CRM systems, supply-chain platforms, remote design assistance tools, ERP systems, and large-scale hybrid communications. Avnet required an infrastructure capable of sustaining high bandwidth, low-latency connectivity, secure network segmentation, and enterprise-grade computing performance.
The deployment had to be uniform across Bangalore, Delhi, and Pune, with zero disruption to ongoing operations and seamless integration with Avnet’s global IT governance framework.
Solution Delivered by Orchids Network & Systems
High-Performance Structured Cabling Infrastructure
Orchids engineered a CAT6A shielded structured cabling system across all three Avnet facilities to deliver stable and interference-resistant connectivity for workstations, engineering pods, demo labs, sales floors, and collaborative zones. A fiber backbone interconnected communication rooms, server spaces, and meeting environments, enabling high-throughput data movement required for design files, supply-chain dashboards, and enterprise platforms.
Precision pathway planning, EMI-safe separation, optimized containment, and strict ISO–TIA compliance delivered a long-term-ready and highly reliable cabling foundation.
Enterprise Audio-Visual Ecosystem for Global Collaboration
Avnet’s business model relies heavily on interaction with global suppliers, OEM partners, and engineering teams. Orchids deployed an advanced audio-visual ecosystem across conference rooms, training spaces, client-engagement zones, and collaborative pods.
The AV solution integrated high-definition conferencing systems, intelligent microphone arrays, digital presentation interfaces, secure wireless sharing modules, room-acoustic optimization, and centralized controller units. Each room was calibrated for clarity, echo suppression, and seamless integration with Avnet’s global communication platforms such as Microsoft Teams and other enterprise collaboration tools.
This enhanced Avnet’s ability to conduct virtual design reviews, supplier discussions, client workshops, and multi-location engineering sessions with superior audio and visual quality.
Computing Infrastructure Standardization
Orchids implemented a standardized computing environment across Avnet’s locations to support engineering design tools, ERP systems, CRM platforms, analytics applications, and cloud-driven workflows.
Workstations were optimized for reliability and performance, while backend computing zones received upgraded server rack layouts, structured patching, improved cooling paths, and enhanced cable management. These upgrades reduced system downtime, improved user productivity, and ensured long-term supportability.
Deployment of Enterprise Network Hardware
Configurations included VLAN segmentation, QoS policies, secure authentication, optimized wireless coverage, redundant links, and bandwidth tuning. This network hardware deployment provided Avnet with a secure, stable, and scalable environment capable of supporting digital collaboration, engineering workloads, and hybrid work models.
As part of the end-to-end modernization, Orchids deployed and configured network switches, access points, and supporting hardware across all Avnet offices. This included high-performance switching infrastructure for core, distribution, and access layers, as well as enterprise Wi-Fi solutions engineered for dense office environments.
Multi-City, Zero-Disruption Execution Strategy
A centralized project management office maintained consistency in engineering standards, documentation, device configurations, and certification formats across Bangalore, Delhi, and Pune. This ensured predictability, transparency, and seamless IT governance across all sites.
Operating across three major metros, Avnet required uninterrupted business operations during the infrastructure upgrade. Orchids executed a phased deployment strategy aligned with operational schedules, ensuring no downtime for engineering, sales, customer support, or supply-chain teams.
Compliance, Documentation, and Long-Term Governance
All work was executed in alignment with Avnet’s global IT security framework, hardware guidelines, and infrastructure compliance requirements. Orchids delivered detailed as-built documentation including rack elevations, switch configurations, access point heat maps, patching diagrams, and fiber test reports. This documentation ensures traceability, audit readiness, and simplified maintenance for Avnet’s internal IT teams.
Outcome and Measurable Impact
Avnet now operates on a unified, high-availability infrastructure engineered to support advanced engineering workflows, enterprise applications, and global collaboration.
Network performance improved significantly due to optimized cabling routes and upgraded switching infrastructure. Wireless reliability increased across all three campuses, enabling uninterrupted connectivity for employees and meeting rooms. The computing upgrades enhanced responsiveness of enterprise systems, while the AV deployment transformed global communication efficiency.
This infrastructure is fully prepared to support future technology adoption including cloud expansion, enhanced engineering workloads, AI-driven design tools, and next-generation supply-chain automation.
