Frequently Asked Questions
Questions About Network & Data Cabling
Hardwired Cat 6 and Cat 6a ethernet cabling delivers stable gigabit speeds with low latency and far fewer dropouts than Wi-Fi, and it is not affected by interference from appliances or thick walls.
Yes. Telecommunications and data cabling in Australia falls under ACMA's cabling rules and the AS/CA S009 standard, and the electrical side must meet AS/NZS 3000. We explain what applies to your job when we quote, so you know what to expect.
Cat6 suits most homes and small offices. Cat6a is worth considering for longer runs, higher speeds or extra headroom for the future. We recommend the right option for your building and budget.
Yes. We route cables through ceiling and wall cavities wherever possible and finish with neat wall plates, so the result is tidy and patching is kept to a minimum.
Yes. We install and position Wi-Fi access points on hardwired cabling, which gives much better coverage than a single router, and we can help configure them.
Usually yes. We run cable through the ceiling, wall cavities or subfloor and finish with neat wall plates. It is easiest where there is ceiling or subfloor access.
