INFRASTRUCTURE · CONNECTED BUILDINGS

Cabling, Security & Low Voltage

Bring network cabling, cameras, security systems, and door access into one coordinated plan—from the cable pathway to the systems your team uses every day.

CONNECTED ENVIRONMENTS

Plan the space. Connect the systems.

Consider the physical installation and the digital experience together from the beginning.

Space

Understand locations, pathways and the people using the space.

Systems

Coordinate connectivity, devices, AV and access requirements.

Handover

Define acceptance checks, documentation and operating owners.

Your starting point · scope and responsibilities

MAKE THE NEXT DECISION CLEARER

Bring low voltage into the project plan early.

Cabling, Wi-Fi, cameras and access control depend on the site, its use and the responsibilities of several providers.

Site and system requirements

Review locations, routes, equipment, connectivity and authorized access needs.

Coordination

Agree the boundaries between Network Experts, construction, licensed trades, carriers and application providers.

Acceptance and records

Plan agreed testing, labeling and handover information for the team operating the site.

START WITH THE BUSINESS NEED

Make the technology work for your people.

Connected buildings depend on work that is easy to overlook: cable routes, usable rack space, power, camera coverage, door hardware, and documentation. When each system is installed separately, teams inherit unfinished connections and unclear ownership. Coordinated design resolves those dependencies before installation.

A foundation for every system

Plan wired connectivity and power for workstations, wireless access points, cameras, access control, phones, and AV together.

Clear site and security decisions

Agree camera views, access rules, cabling routes, equipment locations, and responsible trades before equipment is ordered.

An installation your team can maintain

Receive agreed labeling, cable test records, rack layouts, access ownership, and a practical system handover.

WHAT WE CAN HELP WITH

Practical capabilities. Defined responsibilities.

01

Copper, fiber, and structured cabling

Plan and coordinate Cat6 / Cat6A and fiber runs, patch panels, outlets, pathways, termination, and labeling for the site. Specify test and acceptance requirements, keep a port schedule, and document installed routes and results.

02

Network racks, power, and PoE

Organize racks, switches, patching, cable management, UPS requirements, and service access. Size PoE budgets for cameras, wireless access points, phones, and supported door devices. Coordinate mains power and building work with the responsible trades.

03

Camera and video systems

Design camera coverage around the spaces and events that matter to your operation. Plan recorder or storage capacity, retention, network separation, authorized viewing, remote access, and representative day and night acceptance checks.

04

Access control and door coordination

Scope Paxton, UniFi Access, or another suitable platform for credentials, schedules, doors, and visitor workflows. Coordinate readers, controllers, cabling, locks, door hardware, and required egress interfaces with qualified trades and responsible building authorities.

05

Security-system integration

Coordinate network and low-voltage infrastructure for supported intrusion systems, intercoms, alarms, and security integrations. Define installer and monitoring-provider responsibilities, event routing, administration, and what is included in ongoing support.

06

Wi-Fi, AV, and system handover

Connect cable and network plans with wireless coverage, meeting rooms, sound, lighting control, and other supported building technology. Test representative workflows, label connections, transfer approved credentials, and document escalation contacts.

FROM DISCOVERY TO DELIVERY

A considered path forward.

Survey the site

Review floor plans, pathways, existing cables, equipment rooms, doors, coverage needs, and operating constraints.

Coordinate the design

Confirm system scope, compatible equipment, installation responsibilities, permits where needed, schedules, and acceptance criteria.

Install and validate

Coordinate the agreed work, record cable and system tests, verify coverage and access behavior, and resolve outstanding items.

Document and support

Hand over drawings, labels, test results, administration, and the service arrangements needed to maintain the installation.

Know what success means.

Before work begins, agree on the scope, responsible owners, acceptance criteria, and handover requirements. We’ll discuss the evidence and documentation relevant to your project during discovery.

A FEW USEFUL ANSWERS

Before we get started.

Can cabling, cameras, and door access be handled in one project?

Yes. A coordinated scope brings pathways, cabling, switching, PoE, cameras, access control, and responsible trades together. Specialist or regulated work is assigned to appropriately qualified installers, with responsibilities and acceptance checks agreed before work begins.

Can you work with existing cables and equipment?

We assess condition, capacity, test results, documentation, and compatibility first. Usable components may be retained, while damaged, unverified, or unsuitable parts can be included in a defined remediation plan. Reuse is a design decision, not an assumption.

Do you install Paxton and UniFi access or camera solutions?

These are among the platforms we can scope for a project. We confirm model compatibility, door and camera requirements, licensing where applicable, power, storage, network design, and administration before selecting equipment. Brand inclusion does not imply a particular certification tier.

How do you plan camera retention and remote access?

We size storage around the agreed camera count, recording settings, and retention period, then define who can view, export, or administer footage. Remote access and camera networks are configured to the approved security design. Appropriate recording locations and policies remain part of the site’s decision process.

What documentation do we receive after the project?

The agreed handover can include cable labels and test results, port and rack schedules, equipment inventories, camera views, access-control configuration, approved credentials, and support contacts. Acceptance criteria specify which records and demonstrations are required to close the project.
