01Cat6 or Cat6A?
Cat6 handles 1 Gbps to every desk and 10 Gbps over short runs, and it’s fine for most offices. Cat6A carries 10 Gbps the full distance and supports higher-power Wi-Fi access points, so we usually recommend it for AP drops, anything you expect to keep for ten years, and buildings you won’t get back into once the ceilings close.
02Do we need an electrician as well?
Not for the data cabling itself. You will if the network room needs new power circuits, or if your fit-out involves electrical work anyway. We coordinate with your electrician either way so the outlets and the data jacks end up in the same places.
03Can you work while the office is occupied?
Yes. Occupied spaces are usually done evenings or weekends so nobody is working around ladders and open ceiling tiles. Empty spaces and new construction get done during the day.
04Do you do small jobs?
Yes. A handful of drops for a new office or a couple of access points for a dead zone is a normal job for us, and it’s often how a longer relationship starts.
05Do you work with our general contractor?
Yes, and it’s the best way to do a fit-out. Bring us in while the walls are still open and we’ll coordinate rough-in with the GC, then come back to terminate and test once drywall is up.
06Do you test and certify the cabling?
Every run. Each drop is tested against the Cat6 or Cat6A standard, not just checked for a link light, and you receive the test report with the as-built drawing.
07Can you also set up the switches and Wi-Fi?
Yes. That’s the point of having your IT company do the cabling. We configure the switches, access points and firewall, move the internet service over, and make sure everyone can log in on day one. Ongoing support afterwards is optional.
08Do you do homes?
Yes. Most of our work is commercial — offices, clinics, retail, warehouses and light industrial — but we take on residential jobs too. Home offices that need a proper wired connection, drops for TVs and games consoles, and Wi-Fi coverage in the parts of a house that never had any. Same standard either way: tested, labelled and documented.
