On-Premise Infrastructure
The Foundation
Your Business Runs On.

Whether you’re building from scratch, upgrading aging equipment, or expanding to a new location — we design and manage the physical infrastructure that keeps everything connected.

🖧
Structured Cabling & Wiring
Cat6/Cat6a cabling, patch panel installation, cable management, and labeling. Clean, documented cable runs that make future troubleshooting and expansion simple.
📶
Wireless Network Design
Enterprise Wi-Fi with heat mapping, access point placement, VLAN segmentation, and guest network isolation. Full coverage with no dead zones — designed for your floor plan.
🔥
Firewall & Security Appliances
Enterprise-grade firewall deployment with intrusion prevention, content filtering, VPN configuration, and network segmentation — configured to your compliance requirements.
💻
Server & Storage
On-premise server deployment, configuration, and lifecycle management. We handle the hardware selection, OS configuration, RAID setup, and ongoing maintenance so you don’t have to.
🔌
Switches & Network Equipment
Managed switch deployment with VLAN configuration, QoS policies, and port security. Every device is documented, monitored, and maintained under your service agreement.
UPS & Power Protection
Uninterruptible power supplies for critical equipment, surge protection, and graceful shutdown automation. Your systems stay protected during outages and power events.
Cloud & Hybrid Infrastructure
On-Premise, Cloud,
or Both.
Microsoft 365 & Azure
Full M365 deployment and management — Exchange Online, SharePoint, Teams, OneDrive, and Entra ID. We handle licensing, migration, security policies, and ongoing administration.
Cloud Migration
Moving from on-premise to cloud or hybrid? We plan and execute migrations with zero data loss and minimal downtime. Email, file servers, applications — all handled.
VPN & Remote Access
Secure remote access for distributed teams. Site-to-site VPN, client VPN, and zero-trust network access solutions — configured for performance and compliance.
Multi-Site Connectivity
Connecting multiple office locations with secure, reliable networking. SD-WAN, MPLS alternatives, and site-to-site tunnels that keep your locations working as one.

Most NJ businesses we work with are running some combination of on-premise servers, Microsoft 365, and cloud-hosted applications. The challenge isn’t choosing one — it’s making them all work together reliably, securely, and in compliance with your industry requirements.

Iron Core designs hybrid environments where on-premise and cloud infrastructure are integrated seamlessly. Your team gets the performance of local resources with the flexibility and redundancy of the cloud — and you get a single partner managing the entire stack.

Every configuration is documented, every change is logged, and every access control is mapped to your compliance framework. When your auditor asks how your network is architected, we hand them the documentation.

How It Works
From Assessment
to Fully Connected.

Whether it’s a new office build-out or an upgrade to aging infrastructure, we follow the same proven process.

01
Site Assessment
We survey your physical space, audit existing equipment, map your current network, and identify bottlenecks, security gaps, and capacity limitations.
02
Architecture & Design
We design a network architecture matched to your business needs — performance requirements, user count, compliance obligations, and growth plans. You approve the plan before we touch anything.
03
Deploy & Configure
We install, configure, and test all equipment. Cabling, switches, firewalls, access points, servers — everything is deployed to spec and documented as we go.
04
Monitor & Manage
Once live, your network is monitored 24/7. We handle firmware updates, configuration changes, capacity planning, and troubleshooting — proactively, not reactively.
Frequently Asked Questions
Network & Infrastructure
Questions, Answered.
Our network is slow — can you figure out why?
Yes. We start with a full network assessment that identifies bottlenecks — whether it’s outdated switches, bandwidth limitations, misconfigured QoS, Wi-Fi dead zones, or overloaded segments. We’ll give you a clear diagnosis and a prioritized fix plan.
We’re moving to a new office — can you handle the entire IT setup?
Absolutely. We handle everything from structured cabling and rack installation to firewall deployment, Wi-Fi design, server migration, and phone system setup. We coordinate with your contractors and landlord so IT is ready on move-in day — not three weeks later.
Should we move everything to the cloud?
It depends on your business. Some workloads run better in the cloud, some perform better on-premise, and most businesses benefit from a hybrid approach. We’ll assess your applications, compliance requirements, and budget to recommend the right mix — not just push everything to Azure because it’s trendy.
Do you support multi-site businesses?
Yes. We connect multiple office locations with secure site-to-site networking, centralized management, and consistent security policies across all sites. Whether you have two NJ offices or locations across the tri-state area, we manage them as a unified environment.
What brands of equipment do you use?
We’re vendor-agnostic and recommend equipment based on your needs, not vendor incentives. That said, we commonly deploy Fortinet and Meraki firewalls, Ubiquiti and Aruba access points, and Dell and HP servers. Every recommendation is matched to your size, budget, and compliance requirements.
Is network infrastructure included in managed IT?
Ongoing network monitoring and management is included in every managed IT plan. New build-outs, office moves, and major hardware upgrades are typically scoped as separate projects with fixed pricing. We’ll recommend the right approach during your assessment.
