Cabling, networks, security systems, and IT support for offices and commercial spaces in Chicago and the surrounding area.

Low voltage infrastructure

Structured cabling

Cabling is the part of a network you only want to install once. We install copper and fiber systems that are organized, labeled, and tested, so moves, adds, and changes stay simple years later.

  • Cat 6A
  • OM3
  • OM4
  • OS2
  • TIA-568
  • TIA-606

What is included

  • Cat 6 and Cat 6A copper cabling to desks, rooms, access points, and cameras
  • Single-mode and multimode fiber between floors and buildings
  • Equipment room build-outs with racks, patch panels, and cable management
  • Jacks, faceplates, and wall and ceiling pathways
  • Labeling and as-built documentation
  • Cable testing, with results delivered at handoff
  • Office build-outs, tenant improvements, and relocations

Networking and Wi-Fi

We install and configure the switches, wireless access points, and firewalls that sit on top of the cabling, and set them up to be managed instead of left on factory defaults.
