Hassan Peracha

Setting up a new office in the UAE? Whether you’re launching a startup, expanding your call center, or relocating your consultancy firm, having the right IT infrastructure in place is essential for smooth business operations.

At MWPCorporate, we’ve been helping UAE businesses build reliable, secure, and scalable IT environments since 2012. Here's your ultimate guide to what’s needed for a professional office IT setup—and why each element matters.


🧩 1. Computers, Laptops & Accessories

Why it matters: Your team’s productivity depends heavily on the performance and reliability of their workstations.

What you need:

  • Business-grade laptops or desktops (depending on mobility needs)
  • Monitors, docking stations, keyboards & mice
  • Printers, scanners, and UPS backups

Tip: Choose refurbished laptops with solid specs to save cost without compromising quality.


🌐 2. Network & Structured Cabling

Why it matters: A fast, stable, and secure network is the foundation of any modern office.

What you need:

  • High-speed internet router
  • Modem or fiber connection setup
  • Professional structured cabling (Cat6/Cat7)
  • Switches and patch panels for smooth connectivity

Tip: Poor cabling = slow speeds & frequent disconnections. Always let professionals handle this.


📶 3. Wi-Fi Access Points

Why it matters: If your team or clients are spread across multiple rooms, basic routers won’t cut it.

What you need:

  • Enterprise-grade Wi-Fi access points with load balancing
  • Mesh network setup for larger spaces
  • Secure guest and admin network segmentation

Bonus: We configure it all and optimize for seamless coverage.


🔒 4. CCTV Surveillance System

Why it matters: CCTV not only enhances physical security but also improves employee accountability and deters theft.

What you need:

  • Indoor & outdoor cameras
  • Network Video Recorder (NVR) setup
  • Remote access via mobile app
  • Backup power & proper cabling

Compliance: Many Dubai and UAE jurisdictions require CCTV for licensing—don’t miss this!


📞 5. IP Phones & PBX Systems

Why it matters: Whether it’s customer support or internal communication, you need clear, reliable and scalable voice systems.

What you need:

  • VoIP IP phones for each desk
  • Central PBX system for call routing
  • Integration with CRM or support software
  • Call recording & forwarding features

Ideal for: Call centers, consultancies, logistics firms, etc.


🧠 6. Software & Licensing

Why it matters: Using unlicensed or pirated software can lead to compliance issues and cybersecurity risks.

What you need:

  • Genuine Windows OS licenses
  • Microsoft Office, antivirus, VPN, and backup tools
  • Industry-specific software (accounting, logistics, etc.)

We offer volume licensing and help with setup and activation.


🛠️ 7. Ongoing IT Management & Support

Why it matters: Regular IT maintenance prevents downtime, protects data, and supports growth.

What you need:

  • Monthly or quarterly IT health checks
  • On-site and remote troubleshooting
  • Device monitoring and software updates
  • Dedicated IT support on call
