Data and comms cabling
Structured Cat6 and Cat6A cabling installed and tested to a certified standard, ready for EPOS, Wi-Fi and phone systems to go live on the day the site opens.
Why it matters
Every till, access point and phone on site depends on the cabling behind the wall being right first time. Structured Cat6 or Cat6A cabling gives a site the bandwidth and reliability modern systems need, and every run is tested and certified so a fault shows up on the test result, not after go-live.
ILUX installs the cabling alongside the electrical first fix, so containment is shared and the comms room is ready before it's needed.
What's included
- Structured Cat6 or Cat6A cabling designed to the site's data and phone requirements
- Comms cabinet, patch panels and containment installed and labelled
- Cabling for EPOS, Wi-Fi access points and phone systems included in the same install
- Every run tested and certified for performance before handover
- Test certificates and cable schedules issued for the asset register
- Sequenced with electrical first fix so containment is shared, not duplicated
Where a site is opening to a fixed date, cabling is scheduled early enough that IT and EPOS providers can commission on time, not left waiting on it.
Cabling is the start, connectivity is what runs over it.
Structured cabling underpins broadband, Wi-Fi and phone systems once the site's live. See how the connectivity itself is set up and managed.
Rolling cabling out across sites
For a roll-out programme, the same cabling specification is repeated at each site, so IT teams see the same cabinet layout and labelling wherever they open a comms room.
Common questions.
Cat6 or Cat6A — which do we need?
Depends on the site's bandwidth needs and cable run lengths. We'll recommend the right spec once we know what's running over it.
Do we get test results for every cable run?
Yes, every run is certified and the results are handed over with the cable schedule for the asset register.
Can you work alongside our IT provider?
Yes. We install and certify the physical cabling; your IT provider commissions the systems that run over it.
