Frequently Asked Questions
What is data cabling?
Data cabling refers to the structured wiring used to connect and transfer data between devices within a network. It supports internet access, phone systems, and internal communications in homes, offices, and commercial buildings.
Why is structured cabling important?
Structured cabling provides a clean, organised network setup that’s easier to manage, troubleshoot, and upgrade. It ensures consistent data speeds, reduces interference, and supports future expansion with minimal disruption to your existing infrastructure.
How is data cabling different from regular electrical wiring?
Data cabling is specifically designed for information transfer, not power. It uses twisted-pair wiring to minimise signal loss and interference, unlike electrical cables, which are built to deliver power to lights and appliances.

New Cable Installations
As a business owner, you understand the benefits of a professionally installed data cable network. Here at Wide Area Communications we pride ourselves on providing those professional data network installations. We perform installations for small and medium sized businesses, maintaining the highest levels of industry installation best practice (AS/NZS 3080:2013) to ensure that our networks are reliable and perform at the maximum speed possible. At the same time, as a locally owned company we are able to keep our prices low, whilst still providing high performance data network cable installations for customers seeking a budget conscious cable installation.
Repairs and Fault Finding
With many years of experience in both domestic and commercial network infrastructure installation and maintenance, along with the latest in quality diagnostic equipment, Wide Area Communications is able to have a technician find and repair any network cable related fault.
Cat 6 or Cat 6a Data Cable Installations
Cat 6 and now Cat 6a offer enhanced performance for data communication, with Cat 6 rated for speeds up to 1Gb/sec and Cat 6a rated up to 10Gb/sec. Whilst Cat 6a is still significantly more expensive, Cat 6 is now very affordable and is the minimum standard used by WAC for any internal data or NBN network cabling.
Cabling your office for the NBN & CCTV
For those offices now able to connect to the NBN, some minor cable modifications may be required to connect all your existing cabling to a new NBN connection. One of our friendly and professional technicians can provide you with no obligation cabling suggestions to connect your office and enhance your NBN experience.
