Cat6 and Cat6a cabling, containment, comms cabinets and labelling, from a single awkward run to the full data package on an office fit-out. Designed from the floor plan and tested at handover.
Every network problem eventually lands on the physical layer. The outlet that was never terminated properly, the run that goes nowhere anyone can find, the cabinet where twenty years of patch leads have fossilised. By then the cheap moment to fix it, when the walls were open, has long gone.
So we treat cabling as infrastructure rather than an errand: designed from the floor plan, run in proper containment, terminated once and tested, labelled at both ends, and handed over with a port schedule. Dull to read about. Twenty years of quiet service in the walls.
Real installs by our own engineers, not a stock library.

Second fix, on the tools The floor plan decides the design. The testing decides whether it is finished.
New installations, extensions to existing estates, and the awkward single run to the room the last install forgot. Specified after a survey, not from a rule of thumb.
The whole data layer on an office fit-out: first-fix containment while the walls are open, second-fix termination, then the cabinet, switches and Wi-Fi at the end.
Cabinets supplied and built properly, or inherited ones brought back to something an engineer can work on: panels in, leads dressed, everything findable.
Every run tested at handover and every outlet labelled at both ends, with a port schedule that says where each one lands. This is where cupboard chaos is prevented.
The cabinet nobody dares touch, re-dressed and documented. We have unpicked enough of them to know the difference between a mess and a lost cause, and we will say which yours is.
Cabling rarely arrives alone. The same team designs the network that runs on it, the Wi-Fi that hangs off it, and the CCTV and meeting rooms it feeds.
Answer a handful of questions and get a live budget range for the work, built on the same rates we quote from. Fifty outlets and up; smaller jobs are priced individually.
Cat6 comfortably runs gigabit and short-run 10 gigabit, and is the sensible default for most offices. Cat6a holds 10 gigabit over the full 90 metre run and is worth the step up for new fit-outs, high-density Wi-Fi backhaul and anywhere you would rather not revisit the ceiling in five years. We will recommend one, and say why, after seeing the building and hearing what the network needs to carry.
Less than people fear if it is planned. Containment and ceiling work is the noisy part, so we schedule it out of hours or room by room, and terminations are quiet. On live sites we agree the order of rooms with you in advance so nobody loses their desk unannounced. On new fit-outs we coordinate with the builder so cabling lands between first and second fix, which is the cheap moment to do it.
Every outlet, both ends, as standard. Each run is tested at handover, outlets and patch panels carry matching labels, and you get a port schedule listing every outlet and where it lands in the cabinet. An unlabelled installation is where comms cupboard chaos starts, so we treat labelling as part of the job rather than a courtesy.
Usually, yes. We can extend an existing installation, re-terminate tired outlets, and bring an inherited comms cabinet back to something an engineer can work on: patch panels in, leads dressed, everything labelled. We will tell you honestly when the existing cabling is not worth building on, which does happen with older Cat5 estates.
Yes, and it is a good chunk of the work. We take the data and Wi-Fi package on office fit-outs: design from the floor plan, first-fix containment, second-fix termination, then the cabinet, switches and access points at the end. One contractor for the whole data layer, coordinated with the main contractor programme.
Fewer than the old rule of thumb. Two per desk used to be standard; with Wi-Fi carrying laptops and softphones, many offices now run one per desk plus a margin for printers, screens with docks, door entry, cameras and access points. The survey counts what the building actually needs rather than multiplying desks by two, which is how over-specified installs happen.
A floor plan and a rough outlet count is enough to start. If you do not have a plan, a survey visit sorts that too.
