Grand Prairie, TX

March 27, 2024

We implemented a Wifi solution for both the warehouse and office areas, installing around eight Wifi access points in the warehouse and one in the office. For security purposes, we set up eight cameras in the warehouse, two in the office, and one outside the building. Hikvision cameras were chosen due to the customer's preference for cost-effective, high-quality cameras that did not require NDAA compliance. Additionally, Hikvision cameras are also used in their other facilities.

Hilti wanted a new paging system mainly for emergency pages throughout the facility. We installed around 14 of the Valcom 30-watt paging horns and four ceiling-mounted speakers through the open areas of the office. This project took several of our techs about a week to complete. The customer was very happy with our work and asked us to give them a quote on another project. We installed two desk top microphones per the customers request for paging access.

Texas Security Bank has been a long-time customer of ours and we have been fortunate to help them move into three different buildings. This location has about 200 Cat 6 cables and a dozen wifi access points. We installed an MDF and an IDF on another floor with OM3 fiber connecting the two suites. We also installed data drops behind the TVs and HDMI Cat 6 extensions to the conference tables to the TVs as well.

Denton, TX

August 18, 2023

This was a BYOD (Bring your own device) installation for us with Denton Calvary. The customer had approximately thirty Fortinet Wi-Fi access points that he needed cabled and installed. With the new fiber backbone across the campus, all the Wi-Fi can be linked back to the MDF at 1 Gig connections. This project was challenging because the customer wanted it installed before school started back which meant extremely hot attic spaces. The other challenge is that getting cable to the second floor of some buildings required installing conduit but other than that it went very well and the customer has had us come back on a few smaller projects.

Denton, TX

August 4, 2023

We installed over 1000 feet of armored and unarmored OM3 Fiber Optic Cable through hundreds of feet of EMT conduit, fully implementing a solution that seamlessly connected all five buildings of the Private School's campus. We also installed a new network cabinet that enabled the customer to secure their network equipment in a space that was only accessible to authorized personnel. The customer was pleased with our solution and we have since completed two more projects for Denton Calvary Academy.

While at New Song School of Art our team installed a camera in each of the classroom, office and closed space for a grand total of 40 camera installations!At the request of the customer we connected the classroom camera to a monitor in the lobby so that parents are now able to comfortably keep an eye on their students as they are participating in their private lessons. Each camera also came with a speaker so that parents were able to not only watch but listen to the lesson! We also installed new wifi access points throughout the facility. This enabled the staff to walk through their main campus to separate buildings all while being connected to the same wifi with no drop in service and having to connect to a new wifi.

Dallas, TX

December 8, 2022

We installed an attenuator on both floors, which allowed them to amplify the sound from the paging systems across the floor. By adding the attenuator, employees are now able to adjust the volume of the entire floor unanimously or individually, allowing for better customization for each speaker. However, there were two speakers that did not have control knobs, allowing for these easy adjustable sounds. Our technicians are going back to install these adjustable knobs as a courtesy to the customer. The customer provided all 30 of the ceiling speakers that we installed. Our team of three technicians was able to completely finish wiring and installing valcom power supplies for thirty speakers within two days of work.

South lake, TX

November 23, 2022

We connected the two floors of Texas Security Bank with a multi-mode fiber optic cable. With the primary data room downstairs, we were tasked with feeding the fibers upstairs to different network cabinets. After connecting the first floor to the second, we installed three new access points across the building. In order to give the customer the utmost satisfaction, we installed upwards of 75 data cables, allowing for seamless connection between the bank’s teller systems, ATM machines, in house PC's, and many other appliances that required a Wi-Fi connection. Our team also installed all of the network hardware, which included the network switch, firewalls, and battery backups. At the request of the customer, we also added these to the large wall-mount cabinet that fit the specs of their equipment list.

Denton, TX

November 22, 2022

Politon was asked to restore the building’s technology through the installation of all-building wifi. Politon then installed eight different wifi access points throughout the mosque, including a controller that allows for universal control over these points. Politon also provided turn-key wifi installation, which was installed throughout the corridors of the mosque and the prayer rooms on both the first and second floors. This provided lots of wifi coverage throughout the building, eventually upgrading the entire facility to a brand new computer network. The customer for this project was extremely satisfied with the work that was completed, and after building a long relationship with the workers of Politon, they are happy to say that they are loyal Politon customers.

Fort Worth, TX

Their current technology was originally located on multiple different floors, but Politon helped to connect each of these locations for greater efficiency. Politon added two post data rack from the MDF to the cubicles located on the fifth floor, which took about 200 CAT-6 data drops. They then added multimodal fiber between the new data room with the new post rack and the MDF and proceeded to create a new IDF on a different floor to better feed connections to future users. Politon also assisted with cabling for security purposes by pulling cables from eight different access points and POE cameras around the suite in hopes of providing optimal assistance. By the end of the project, the insurance company was highly satisfied with the work done by Politon and were delighted to consider themselves a customer of their company.

With their previous vendor, lots of the fiber used was not properly protected with a fanout kit, making connectivity extremely delicate for the company. As a result, they had to terminate the majority of the fiber used. However, Orange Barrel Media did not want to completely eliminate all the technological work that was already done for them, so they turned to Politon to fix what was necessary to help the company run smoothly. Thus, Politon re-terminated the fibers, plugged them back in, and certified the strands that needed fixing so that it met industry standards. Although this may only be a temporary solution for Orange Barrel Media, they were excited to be up and running again thanks to Politon. Working with Orange Barrel Media was a neat, interesting project to work on because of the unique challenges that were presented. Not to mention, Orange Barrel Media has beautiful artwork displayed on the outside of its headquarters, making for a visually appealing project to work on as well.

Coppell, TX

October 6, 2022

Long-time customer Ariat Boot Distribution is expanding to a new warehouse in Coppell, Texas. The building that they are expanding to was previously utilized by a tenant and needed some upgrades in order to keep up with the growing company. The warehouse had some previously existing data cabinets around the warehouse. Our team was called in to run fibers and install network switches to the existing cabinets in the main data room. In order to maximize the connections and communications between employees in the warehouses, we installed and plugged in eight wifi access points into the network switch around the offices and warehouse. In order to maintain security, we installed four cameras to monitor aisles. Because this warehouse was previously occupied, we needed to test each of the thirty existing cables in the offices to provide utmost proficiency in our customers' new office. Our customer was pleased with the work of our team, and we discussed coming back for future projects.

Burleson, TX

September 28, 2022

Long-time customer Saddle Creek Burleson ran into a problem with their security guard post when their fiber box with the network gear succumbed to water damage after bad weather. In order to increase the safety of their facility in the most efficient way possible, they called us in for our fiber optics services. We were able to take the fiber from the data cabinet in the guard post and run it to their desired location inside the building. After running the fiber, we were able to successfully complete the data connections and have the facilities’ security post running in no time.

Fort Worth, TX

July 26, 2022

The main portion of this project was connecting the two office spaces through data cabling allowing for an extension of the network used. This was especially difficult because one office space was on the 6th floor and the other was on the 5th floor of the neighboring building. Proving to be an even harder challenge as the pipes between the building had been busted and required a bit of ingenuity to allow for proper functionality. Once we were able to move and connect the cabling to each building, it was discovered that inside the office space the old tenant had pulled the data cabling and rebuilt walls around them. In an effort to utilize the old cabling we had to dig out the old cabling and reconfigure them to the new floor plan. To allow for a more enjoyable work-life experience, we added new additions to the conference and training room. These included adding AV cables that connected the HDMI cables from the TVs to an HDMI plate below the TV, and a CAT-6 to HDMI extension data cable. This allowed employees easy access when connecting laptops to the screens during important presentations. We also revamped the entire data rack and installed all the data cabling for the wifi and installed wifi access points. With 140 total cables, our team was able to completely build an entirely new office space.

Politon had installed TRW's network and security system in Lewisville, Texas. So when one of the cameras stopped working, we got the call to fix it. During some construction in the warehouse next door, a girder support mount had been clamped directly on top of the cable running to the camera. We pulled the cable out, replaced the bad section, and the camera started working again.

Located in Arlington, Texas, Kimball Midwest has been a long-time customer of Politon. So when they needed some new Ethernet drops and a projector installed, we got the call. The two new Ethernet drops in the warehouse were very straightforward. For the new drop in their conference room, we were able to tone out an existing unused cable.

Irving, TX

February 10, 2022

Summit Electric Supply in Irving, Texas, asked us to investigate problems they were having with their data cabling. Many of the 148 drops in their office area were not working properly. We tested each drop with the Fluke DSX-5000 cable certifier. Out of the 148, 114 passed, 15 failed, and 19 had no connectivity between the jack in the data room and the jack in the office. We corrected all the issues by finding a match for the missing connections while labeling the office jacks with the corresponding data room jack.

Roanoke, TX

January 21, 2022

For over a decade we have provided data cabling solutions to Saddle Creek Logistics Services. They contacted us for twenty additional Ethernet drops in their Roanoke warehouse. Four drops for an existing station were pulled and mounted. The other sixteen drops were for new stations. They were pulled and installed in quad boxes; excess cable was provided since locations of the new stations had not been determined. As a critical final step in the process, Politon tested all the connections to verify they worked properly. As a side note, Roanoke is known as the unique dining capital of Texas. We took advantage of this by eating lunch at Hard Eight BBQ on South Oak Street.

Fort Worth, TX

January 19, 2022

Norfleet Land Services in Fort Worth, Texas, called us for a quick data cabling job. They needed two Ethernet drops for printers. The first drop was not complicated. The second drop, however, was a little more involved, because we had to maneuver the wire over solid ceilings with very limited access space. We used fiberglass fish rods to push the wire through the tight space. In less than an hour, we finished pulling cables, installing jacks, testing connections, and cleaning up. The customer was very grateful for the efficient service. The next time we have a job in Fort Worth, we would like to check out Heim BBQ on 1109 W Magnolia Ave, Fort Worth, TX 76104. It is recommended by Texas Monthly and ranked number one on Yelp.

Dallas, TX

December 3, 2021

Using the access path from the main cabling run out of the data closet, we were able to get the new cables into the office area and fish them down the walls into position. The tricky part of this job was getting the cables from the data closet to the locations since much of the area near the data closet had solid ceilings. We added the connections and tested to be sure everything was working properly. Another successful job completion.

Fort Worth, TX

November 12, 2021

Baumann asked us to install two Quad data outlets for future use on some new cubicle workstations. We pulled the cable out the opening with about twenty feet of slack and a four-square box with a faceplate on it. We also installed a dual data run in the same room for a printer location. There were no real challenges to this small project and thankfully they have asked us to come back on some additional projects in their warehouse.
