Liverpool's Anglican Cathedral has installed a structured network cabling system from AMP Netconnect to facilitate communication between different departments and with the real world.

Liverpool's Anglican Cathedral, the largest in the United Kingdom, has installed a structured network cabling system from AMP Netconnect to facilitate communication between different departments and with the 'real' world The Category 6 cabling system, installed by Lake Technology, provides access via a total of 201 data and voice outlets, and has a 25-year performance warranty

The cathedral, built from local sandstone over a period of 74 years from the laying of the foundation stone in 1904, measures 201m in length by 61m across the two transepts.

In common with many similar institutions, it has been slow to get up to speed with the computer age and modern communications technology.

Until recently, staff were using stand-alone PCs in different parts of the building, with a small network between a handful of stations in the administrative offices.
