Today’s data networks are a vital foundation to successful business performance and, for many companies, IT infrastructure will be one of the most expensive assets. This investment can only provide the intended payback if it delivers the level of performance that it was designed to achieve.

Behind the complex data processing electronics that many associate with an IT network, sits a cabling system that is equally as important to performance. For almost four decades, Brand-Rex has been dedicated to designing, developing and manufacturing the most sophisticated, secure and robust cable and connectivity solutions that carry today’s high-speed data traffic.

Our Business
Brand-Rex is a leading global supplier of structured cabling systems for data networks, and is a niche supplier of high performance cables for extreme environment applications.

Brand-Rex provides complete cabling systems that connect the IT equipment in our offices and data centers – from patch cords and wall outlets seen in the office, to cable running under floors and above ceilings, to connectivity panels that interface with active equipment in the IT room. Within vast data centers, hosting huge amounts of business-critical information, Brand-Rex offers industry-leading, high-speed and high-density solutions.

Brand-Rex also manufactures niche cables for applications where high temperature, abrasion and chemical resistance alongside size and weight limitations are particular challenges. These cables are found in marine, aerospace, rail, automotive and industrial applications.

Brand-Rex Limited was established in 1972, in Glenrothes, Scotland, where the company’s head office remains today.

The company’s roots stretch back to the 1940’s, when the original Brand-Rex Corporation was formed. With expertise in specialty and communications cables, the company then developed solutions for very early computer systems. This timely entry into the world of data communication was to form the foundations for today’s core business.

Brand-Rex now has a turnover of around £80 Million and employs 400 staff. It has 14 global offices and a presence in over 45 countries worldwide, while in Western Europe it is recognized as the number 2 player, with a market share of over 9%.

The core technologies provided by Brand-Rex include copper-based cabling systems, fiber optic cabling systems (including a unique air-blown fiber system) and an Intelligent Infrastructure & Management Solution that delivers full visibility and management capability to end user clients.
