WiFi, cameras, computers and building systems depend on the connections behind them. We install structured copper and fibre cabling with organised pathways, clear labelling and testing matched to the project. Registered cablers working to ACMA requirements.

The problem
Why it matters
Untested, unlabelled or poorly terminated cabling causes intermittent faults that are hard to trace and expensive to fix later.
How it works
Our approach
01Runs are planned from each outlet, access point or camera back to a rack or switch location.
02Cables are terminated, labelled at both ends, patched and tested to the agreed test level.
03A signed cabling compliance statement (such as TCA1) is provided where required.
04Cat6A is our default proposal for new 10 GbE copper links, subject to design.
New outlets, Cat6 and Cat6A
New network outlets for desks, screens and devices, using Cat6 for most everyday links and Cat6A where 10 Gb/s copper or future capacity is wanted.

Office fit-outs, relocations and expansion
Cabling for WiFi and security
Access points, cameras, door readers and controllers all need cabling to suitable locations, often with PoE. We plan these runs with the rest of the network.
WiFi access point cabling
CCTV and access control cabling
Racks, patching and clean-ups
Patch panels and communications racks are installed and dressed so ports can be traced. Untidy racks can be repatched and labelled without starting over.

Rack clean-ups and repatching
Faults, documentation and handover
We trace and replace damaged cabling, and finish every job with labels, test results and documentation you can hand to the next technician.

Copper or fibre?
Copper carries electrical signals and suits runs up to about 100 m to outlets and devices — and can deliver PoE power. Fibre carries light, suits longer backbones and links between floors or buildings, and doesn't conduct electricity, but can't power devices.
Structured cabling with CommScope
CommScope provides copper and fibre connectivity for structured networks, including SYSTIMAX solutions where specified. We select suitable cable, outlets and patch panels, design the complete channel with consistent components, and install, test and document it with room for expansion. Performance depends on the complete system and how it is installed, not the cable brand alone. Any manufacturer warranty is subject to eligibility and project requirements being verified — we don't claim partner certification or an extended system warranty by default.

Which cable for which job?
Distances are illustrative examples for the stated application, not guarantees. A standard copper channel is normally up to 90 m of permanent cabling plus patch leads. Optics, connectors, loss budget and installation conditions determine the actual design.
