Ethernet Wiring — FAQs
Is Cat6 sufficient for a home network?
Yes. Cat6 supports 10Gbps over shorter distances and 1Gbps over standard home runs. For most homes, Cat6 is more than sufficient for current and near-future needs.
Can you install ethernet in an existing home?
Yes. We route cables through loft spaces, under floors, and in walls to keep the installation clean and hidden.
Do you set up the network equipment too?
We focus on the cabling infrastructure. We can advise on routers, switches, and access points, and ensure everything is connected and working.
