Structured Cabling in Poojapitiya

For a typical small shop, we suggest one at the billing counter for the POS or PC, one for the CCTV recorder, one for the printer, and one or two spare at likely future positions such as a back office or a ceiling access point. Adding spares during installation costs far less than returning later, and it keeps flexibility if the layout changes.

Yes. We plan the work to minimise disruption, running cable in neat surface trunking or along existing routes where walls cannot be opened, and working in sections so the counter keeps operating. If needed, we can schedule the noisier parts of the job outside your busiest trading hours, agreeing the plan with you during the free site survey.

Cat5e is the budget option and fine for basic needs; Cat6 is the sensible default for most modern offices; and Cat6a supports 10-gigabit speeds, worth it for server rooms and backbone runs but rarely necessary for individual desks. For most offices we run Cat6 to workstations and Cat6a only on the backbone.

We recommend two data points per desk — one for a computer and one spare for a phone, printer, or future need — rather than exactly one per person. Retrofitting a single missed point after the finishes are complete costs far more than including it upfront.

Cabling during construction, before walls close up, is significantly cheaper per point than retrofitting into a finished space, where cables must be routed around existing finishes. If you're planning a new fit-out, involve your cabling provider at the same stage as your electrician.

Yes. Every structured cabling installation includes termination, testing, and certification documentation. Untested cabling can look fine on day one and cause intermittent faults months later that are far more expensive to diagnose — so certification is standard, not an optional extra.

For a typical 20-person office in the Kandy area, professional structured cabling runs between LKR 150,000 and LKR 300,000 depending on cable type and layout complexity, including data points at each workstation, patch panels, a network cabinet, and testing certification.
