Yes. All our fiber optic installations use Etisalat-approved and DU-approved cable types and hardware. This is essential for FTTH projects and any fiber installation that connects to the Etisalat or du networks. Using non-approved cables risks rejection by the telecom provider during sign-off. We stock approved OS2 and OM4 cables and can confirm compliance before any project starts.

Cat6 supports 1G up to 55 meters and is suitable for small offices. Cat6a supports 10G up to 100 meters — the current best practice for new structured cabling installations in Dubai. Fiber optic cabling (OS2 single-mode or OM4 multimode) supports 100G+ over much longer distances and is ideal for building backbones, data centers, and inter-building connections. We recommend Cat6a as the minimum for new office cabling in UAE, with fiber for any backbone runs.

Structured cabling is a standardized telecommunications infrastructure that supports data, voice, video, and building systems through a single, organized system. Every Dubai office building needs it because it provides a scalable, manageable physical network layer — far more reliable and future-proof than point-to-point wiring. TIA/EIA-compliant structured cabling also supports faster speeds (10G, 25G), is easier to troubleshoot, and is required for many building compliance certifications in the UAE.
