Ortronics/Legrand System Solutions
Better Business Means a Smarter Network Infrastructure

Networks are changing the landscape of retail—with real-time inventory control, better security, the merger of on-line and in-store shopping, and instant access to information that speeds transactions and increases customer satisfaction.

In the hypercompetitive retail world, consumers have more choice and more access to information. That's why smart retailers are connecting with consumers through multichannel transparency within a store, among stores, and with the warehouse and on-line resources. Persistent connectivity enables Internet ordering/store pickup, more self-serve options, and smarter access to stock information.

Inventory control also means loss prevention. Security cameras and other devices can now be integrated into the same LAN. Gone is the need for separate and costly coax cabling.

With most retail stores lacking on-site IT support, any network and connectivity solution must be easy to manage and next to impossible to mess up. While the system must accommodate changing needs, it must also be extremely reliable and require no day-to-day attention.

Ortronics/Legrand has been working with leading retailers to create flexible, easily managed cabling infrastructures. Whether you're looking at outfitting a single store or standardizing for a retail chain, our solutions provide you with the reliable connectivity and physical support that can mean increased profitability.

More Choice, More Flexibility, More Solutions

As part of the Legrand group, a multibillion-dollar global leader in residential and commercial electrical and connectivity products, we also have access to a wide range of resources from other Legrand companies, each an industry leader in their area of connectivity, power, cable management, and signal controls. Together, Ortronics/Legrand, Wiremold/Legrand, and Cablofil/Legrand are able to provide seamlessly integrated workstation and cable management solutions and the broadest range of solutions for pathway and spaces.

Easier Connectivity

Our wireless system is the first to integrate centrally managed wireless into the structured cabling system featuring our innovative Wi-Jack Duo™ wireless access points. In the retail setting, a secure wireless system brings many advantages: flexible locating of checkout areas, easier setup of electronic kiosks, and the ability to offer Wi-Fi services.

Wiremold® solutions for perimeter, in-floor, open-space, vertical, or overhead needs combine aesthetics and performance to make it easier than ever to route power and signals. And, the DS4000™ raceway is 10 Gig Ready™ for high-capacity perimeter cabling. They make retrofits, remodeling, and store re-arrangements simpler.

Cablofil® wire mesh cable trays and underfloor systems support flexible, cable routing with simple-to-install, easy-to-configure structures. Their Fast Assembly System™ uses one-step locking tabs that require no screws, bolts or other tools – just a screwdriver to save both time and money.

Support for Every Cabling Media

Copper, fiber, wireless—we can help you create an infrastructure that's easier to manage, more reliable day in and day out, and ready to carry the load. We offer some of the best 10G capabilities in both copper and fiber—so you'll know the bandwidth infrastructure is there to meet evolving needs.
