We did add some new lines for a new production equipment line they were adding.

Data Cabling FAQ
Who can I call to install and Ethernet Cable in my Office?
Network cabling contractors who are experts with Structured cabling. Ethernet, Cat 6 or Cat 7 Cabling should always be installed by a company who understands networking. Some electricians can run these cables. However, we get many calls to fix cabling that was done by someone who was not qualified to to do the job. Unfortunately, it is very common in Charlotte to see networks installed without reference to the TIA or BICSI Standards. The result is that often the network does not work reliably. Read More –>
How much does it cost for a network cable install?
Pricing depends on the number of cables needed but could range from $200-300 per wire. The best way to get an accurate price for your project is to reach out to us. We are happy to talk to you about your needs, and provide a free written estimate. Some factors that adjust the pricing would include, does the building have drop ceilings, drywall, or is it an open warehouse? how tall are the ceilings? What other equipment will be needed for the installation? Things like Server racks, patch panels, cable management, conduit, etc. can all affect the over all cost of a project. In General, many smaller offices might end up paying $5-10,000 for a total install depending on the above factors.
When do i need Plenum Cabling?
Many of the high rise buildings actually do not have return airducts but use the space above the drop ceiling. When this is the case, Plenum cabling is needed. Plenum cabling does in fact cost more then “riser” or typical cables.
Isn't WiFi faster then Ethernet? Do i really need to run cables in my office?
Ethernet is always faster then WiFi regardless of the advertised speeds.
there are many factors involved in this question. However, a cable plugged into a computer will always give you a reliable connection. Where as WiFi can give you a lot of trouble. For example, in many of the offices in the tall buildings, there could be 50 floors each with 5-10 offices, all with their own WiFi. all of that adds up to a lot of interference with your signals. Please see our blog article to read more about this fascinating topic.
Do you have experience working in high rise buildings?
Yes we do. We have many years of experience working in high rise buildings in major cities like Boston, Birmingham, and Charlotte NC areas. We understand the unique situations that come up in those offices and how to route cables from your MDF at the ground floor to your suite.
Do you provide As built drawings and documentation for your work?
Yes. We pride ourselves on providing details that many other contractors do not provide. Should a client request full documentation and As-Builts we can provide full detailed documentation of cable pathways, and any deviations from your office drawings and specifications. We can work on larger projects and interface with RFI and Submittals to Design.
