The backbone your whole network runs on
Data cabling is the physical infrastructure that carries information between your computers, servers, printers, phones, cameras and every other network device. Unlike WiFi alone, structured cabling is engineered to move high-speed data reliably across long distances — with no interference and no drop-outs during business-critical moments.
We've designed and installed cabling for 350+ Auckland properties since 2018 — from Mt Eden bungalows to Penrose warehouses — built to grow with you, not hold you back.
- Faster, steadier speeds — gigabit and multi-gig, far beyond wireless alone.
- Rock-solid reliability — no interference, no connectivity drops mid-operation.
- Future flexibility — quality cabling adapts as your tech needs evolve.
- Certified & documented — a Fluke test report for every run, handed over on completion.
Cat5e vs Cat6 vs Cat6a
The first decision in any data cabling project. Each category has distinct performance and cost — here's how they stack up, and what we'd recommend.
Cat5e
The old workhorse — fine for basic internet, email and standard office apps. But it's dated: on new infrastructure it's a false economy you'll likely be upgrading within five years.
- Max speed
- 1 Gbps
- Best runs
- Short / basic
- Cost
- $ — lowest
Cat6
The sweet spot for most Auckland homes and offices. Handles modern applications comfortably with better shielding than Cat5e over longer runs — properly future-proofed at a sensible cost.
- Max speed
- 10 Gbps*
- Best runs
- Up to ~55m @10G
- Cost
- $$ — balanced
Cat6a
Pushes performance further — 10 Gbps over the full 100m and headroom for 25/40G standards. Essential for data-intensive environments: server rooms, video production, heavy data processing.
- Max speed
- 10 Gbps @100m
- Best runs
- Long / backbone
- Cost
- $$$ — premium
* Cat6 supports 10 Gbps over shorter runs. Not sure which you need? We'll recommend the right cable during your free site survey.
