Network cabling FAQs

How much does network cabling cost per point in Cape Town?

Commercial data points typically range from around R550 to R1,200 each depending on cable type, run length and volume, with bulk discounts on larger installs. We give a fixed written quote after a site assessment.

What is the difference between Cat6 and Cat6A?

Both support gigabit speeds; Cat6A handles 10-gigabit over longer distances with better shielding. We recommend the right grade for your needs and budget.

Do you issue cabling certification?

Yes — we test, certify and label every point, and provide as-built documentation so your network is easy to manage and support.
