Copper structured cabling is limited to 100 metres per run by the standard. Fibre has no practical limit for a home or a business site.

Anything that does not move should be on a cable

WiFi is for phones and laptops. TVs, consoles, desktop PCs, cameras, access points and anything in a rack should be wired. A cabled network is faster, more reliable and does not care how many people are streaming. Aaron is a CNCI certified network cable installer and a Fluke certified test technician, so every run is done to standard and tested, not just plugged in and hoped for.

    Cat6 points behind the TV, in the office, the loft and the garden room, run back to a small cabinet or cupboard.

Data cabling and fibre questions

Cat6 or Cat6a?

Cat6 handles 1Gbps over any run length in a normal house and 10Gbps over short runs, which is plenty for almost every home. Cat6a is worth it for offices, long runs and anywhere you want 10Gbps everywhere. Aaron will recommend based on the building rather than upselling.

Can you run cables without making a mess?

Yes. We route through lofts, voids, cavities and behind skirting where we can, and where we have to chase or drill we make good afterwards. You will be told exactly where cables will run before we start.

Do you do fibre between buildings?

Yes. Single mode or multi mode fibre run in duct or armoured cable between a house and an outbuilding, or between units on a site, then spliced and terminated at both ends. It is the right answer for anything over 90 metres.

What does data cabling cost?

Domestic Cat6 points are typically from around £85 per point including the faceplate and testing, with the price dropping for multiple points on the same visit. Commercial and fibre work is quoted per project after a survey.

Can you fix a network socket that stopped working?

Yes. It is usually a damaged cable or a poor termination. Aaron will test the run, find the fault and repair or replace it, normally in one visit.
