* 2x Cat6 cables from the ground floor cabinet go up the cable riser and then run above the ceiling tiles into the server room, in cable tray some of the way, see image.
* Two new purple jacketed cat6 cables from the ground floor cabinet to the 1st floor server room, run in on 2018-07-10. They go up a riser in the north east corner and then run above the ceiling tiles into the server room, in cable tray for some of the way. See image.
* There are a large number of network sockets spread around the 1st floor, many (all?) of which seem to be run back to a large bundle of cables in the server room, some (all?) of which also run above the ceiling in cable trays.
* There are a large number of network sockets spread around the 1st floor, many (all?) of which seem to be run back via bundles of grey cat5e (?) cable to the server room, also partially in cable trays.

The server room on the third floor is the external demarcation point for the building - the building's existing internet connection is available here along with BT [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_telephone_socket NTE] (s?) and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Krone_LSA-PLUS krone] frames.
The uplink cable from the 1st floor appears here.
