Structured Network & AV Cabling in
Oklahoma City, OK —
Cat6, Fiber & Low-Voltage Wiring

We install structured network and AV cabling across Oklahoma City, OK, from Cat6 and Cat6A drops and fiber backbones to racks, patch panels and PoE runs for Wi-Fi and cameras, with every cable tested, certified and labeled so your network and AV systems run reliably for years.

How we plan and install your cabling

Every job starts with a site walk and your floor plan. We mark every drop you need, from desks and Wi-Fi access points to security cameras, displays and conference room tables, pick the network closet location and plan cable paths that keep each copper run under the 100-meter (328 ft) limit set by TIA-568 standards.

Then we pull the cable. Runs go above the ceiling on J-hooks or in cable tray, through firestopped wall penetrations and into wall plates and floor boxes, using plenum- or riser-rated cable wherever code calls for it. In the closet we mount racks, terminate everything on patch panels and dress it with cable managers so it stays easy to work on.

Finally, every link is tested. We certify copper runs with a cable tester against Cat6 or Cat6A performance, test fiber for loss, label both ends of every cable and hand you the test reports and a labeled floor plan.

Cabling projects we handle

New construction, tenant build-outs and cleanups of older systems, including:

  • New office and tenant build-out cabling
  • Network closet (MDF and IDF) builds
  • Server room and small data center cabling
  • Wi-Fi access point drops with PoE
  • IP security camera runs
  • AV-over-IP and HDBaseT runs for displays
  • Speaker wire and distributed audio cabling
  • Conference room floor boxes and wall plates
  • Fiber backbones between floors and buildings
  • Moves, adds and changes for growing offices
  • Abandoned cable removal and closet cleanups
  • Testing and certification of existing cabling

Cable types compared

The right cable depends on speed, distance and whether the device needs power. Here’s how the four cables we install most often compare.

From horizontal cabling to fiber backbones

A structured cabling system has a few main parts. These are the four we install on almost every job.

Horizontal copper and PoE

Horizontal cabling runs from the network closet to each wall plate, ceiling access point or camera. With Power over Ethernet, the same Cat6 or Cat6A cable carries both data and power, so Wi-Fi access points, cameras and small displays don’t need an outlet nearby.

Fiber backbones

Fiber connects network closets on different floors and buildings across a campus. We install multimode fiber inside a building and single-mode fiber for longer runs, terminate it in rack-mounted enclosures and test every strand for loss.

Racks, patch panels and labeling

Every cable lands on a patch panel in a properly grounded rack, with horizontal and vertical cable managers keeping patch cords tidy. Each port and wall plate gets a matching label following the TIA-606 labeling standard, so any cable can be traced in seconds.

Testing and certification

Certifying a cable means testing it against its category’s performance limits, not just checking that the lights come on. We certify every copper link, test fiber for loss and give you the reports, which many manufacturer warranties require.

Cabling projects across Oklahoma City

Office towers, warehouses, campuses and restaurants all need different cabling. These are the kinds of projects we plan for here.

Downtown OKC

Office tenant build-outs

Companies moving into downtown office towers need every desk, conference room and Wi-Fi access point cabled and certified before move-in day, with plenum-rated cable above shared ceilings.

Airport and I-40 corridor

Warehouses and distribution centers

Warehouses near Will Rogers World Airport and along I-40 need long cable runs to high-bay Wi-Fi and cameras, often with fiber to remote closets to stay within copper distance limits.

Edmond and Moore

Multi-building campuses

Schools, churches and business parks in Edmond and Moore link separate buildings with single-mode fiber, so every building shares one network and one AV system.

Midtown and the Plaza District

Restaurants and retail

Restaurants and shops in Midtown and the Plaza District need cabling for point-of-sale stations, guest Wi-Fi, menu boards, TVs and speakers, all run neatly through finished spaces.
