Moving offices
New space, fixed move-in date. Drops, Wi-Fi locations and the rack need to be in and tested before the furniture arrives.
Networks · Structured Cabling
Cabling you can trace, test and build on.
The cable, racks and connections every network device depends on, planned around what you'll plug in, installed cleanly, labeled at both ends and tested before we leave. Delivered in New Mexico.
Where we deliver this
- Onsite
- New Mexico, scheduled by project location and scope.
- Note
- Formal certification reports are provided only when they're part of the contracted scope.
When cabling becomes the job.
New construction or buildout
Pathways and drop locations get decided before the walls close, alongside the general contractor and electrician.
Renovation
Rooms change use. Old runs come out, new ones go in, and the closet gets reorganized while the work is open.
Adding cameras, access points or phones
New devices need drops, power over Ethernet and switch capacity the original wiring didn't plan for.
The closet nobody wants to open
Unlabeled cable, mystery switches and intermittent drops. We trace it, re-terminate it and document what's there.
Process
From floor plan to labeled patch panel.
- Survey. We walk the space or review drawings, count drops and find paths, ceiling access and the rack location.
- Drop schedule and quote. Every location, cable type, materials list and schedule in writing, coordinated with other trades when needed.
- Install. Cable pulled, terminated and managed. Racks, patch panels and cable management installed.
- Label. Both ends of every run, using a scheme that matches the documentation.
- Test and document. Each run tested, then a record of drop locations, labels and rack layout handed to you.
All systems. Network, security and comfort planned together, each one running back to a single labeled closet.
Network. Access points placed for coverage, drops where people work, and every run labeled back to the rack. Structured cabling
Security. Cameras aimed at the questions you'll actually ask, and readers on the doors that matter. Commercial security
Comfort. Temperature, lighting and shades zoned by room and controlled from one place. Ask about automation
What goes in, and what's handled by other trades.
- Cable
- Cat6, Cat6A or fiber, chosen per run based on distance, device and plans for the space.
- Termination
- Patch panels, jacks and faceplates, with service loops where they help future changes.
- Equipment
- Wall-mount or floor racks and enclosures sized for today's gear with room to grow.
- Labeling
- Both ends of every cable, matching the drop schedule.
- Testing
- Continuity and wiring-fault testing on every run. Certification reports when contracted.
- Records
- Drop locations, labels and rack layout, handed over at completion.
Network cabling is low-voltage work.
New outlets and circuits are electrical work done by a licensed electrician, which we can coordinate. Pathways, wall penetrations and firestopping are planned with your general contractor and inspected as your project requires.
What affects the price
- Number of drops and the length of each run
- Cable type
- Ceiling type, construction and access
- Rack and patch-panel requirements
- New construction versus an occupied space
- Removing abandoned cable
Useful to have ready
- The address and a floor plan or drawings
- Where you want network, camera, Wi-Fi and phone connections
- Your timeline, and the contractor's schedule if there is one
- Photos of the current closet, if you're replacing old cabling
Questions
Cat6 or Cat6A?
It depends on what's being connected, how long the runs are and how long you'll be in the space. Cat6 suits most office drops. Cat6A makes sense for some higher-bandwidth uses and long-term buildouts. We recommend per run and show you the cost difference.
What's the difference between testing and certification?
Every run we install is tested for continuity and wiring faults before handoff. Certification is a more detailed measurement against a cable standard, done with dedicated equipment and delivered as a formal report. It's included only when your scope calls for it, and we'll tell you up front whether it does.
Can you work around business hours?
Usually, yes. Work in occupied spaces is scheduled to keep disruption low. After-hours work affects the price, so we quote it up front.
Will you clean up our existing network closet?
Yes. Re-terminating, re-labeling and removing abandoned cable is a common project. We'll tell you what's worth keeping before we start.
Do you install cabling outside New Mexico?
Not at this time. Cabling and other onsite work is delivered in New Mexico.
Plan the cabling before the walls close.
Send the address, a floor plan if you have one and your timeline. We'll help you place drops for everything you'll connect.
