How to Find the Right Low Voltage Cabling Installer

Low voltage cabling is an essential part of your IT infrastructure; it provides a solid foundation for the digital technology and communication equipment at your facility. Commercial buildings often have complex wiring systems that require special expertise for effective installation, which helps ensure that your systems function efficiently and effectively over time.

It is important for organizations to work with an IT infrastructure services provider that specializes in setting up low voltage networks and installing structured cabling. Below are just a few of the steps you should take when choosing a low voltage cabling installer.

Look for Credentials and Certifications

It’s essential that your organization works with a trained, certified integrator that knows how to properly install cable and connectivity products in a way that achieves long-lasting results. Check to make sure that your low voltage cabling installer is a specialist by asking to see their credentials and certifications. 

Installers that have received manufacturer training on the design standards and best practices for installation will know how to effectively install the low voltage cable. Trained and certified professionals will focus on efficient installation and will be less likely to make errors.

Find Out What Types of Warranties Are Available

When working with a certified IT infrastructure services provider, your organization will have access to warranties that you may not be able to get from other providers. These warranties are typically offered directly through the manufacturer, so it’s important to ask about them when discussing your project with an installation provider.

The warranty will guarantee your cabling system for a specified amount of time. This is the best way to make sure that your cabling system meets or exceeds industry standards for the long term while supporting future standards and protocol.

Learn More About the Installer’s Experience

Since low voltage cabling projects in commercial buildings can be complex, it’s important that you work with someone who specializes in installing this type of infrastructure. Ask the installer about their experience with projects that are similar in size and scope to yours. If possible, review case studies to see the outcome of these projects.

You may also want to ask for references. Contacting previous customers will give you better insight into the installation company’s competence and professionalism as well as give you an idea of what it’s like to work with the company. If references are not available, you can look at online reviews and testimonials to learn more about previous project outcomes and customer satisfaction.

Ask About the Future

Technology changes at a fast pace, and you want cable and connectivity solutions that are designed to support both your current and future needs. An experienced low voltage cabling installer should keep up with technology, installation, and industry trends while finding new ways to ensure that their solutions are effective now and in the future.

Ask the installer how they work to future-proof their solutions and stay ahead of changing technologies. They should be able to make suggestions or offer alternatives that allow you to get the most out of your investment.
