# Copper & Fiber Data Cabling

> Copper and fiber structured cabling for data centers in Michigan — Cat6/Cat6A installation, fiber runs and splicing, termination, testing, and certification.

Copper and fiber, run, terminated, and certified right the first time.

From a single Cat6A run to a full fiber backbone between rows or buildings, we install, terminate, test, and label copper and fiber cabling to a standard that holds up under a certifier, not just a visual check.

## When you need this

- New copper or fiber runs are needed for a rack, row, or new build-out.
- Existing cabling needs to be tested, certified, or re-terminated.
- A fiber backbone needs to be run between rows, floors, or buildings on a campus.
- A GC or trade partner needs a cabling subcontractor who understands data center standards, not just office cabling.

## What's included

### Cat6 / Cat6A installation

Structured copper runs for rack, row, or facility-wide deployments, dressed and labeled to your standard.

### Fiber installation & splicing

Single-mode and multi-mode fiber runs, including splicing, for backbone and cross-connect applications.

### Termination & patch panel work

Copper and fiber termination, patch panel builds, and port mapping documented as it's installed.

### Certified testing

Cable certification with documented test results delivered per run, not just a spot-check.

### Cable path & pathway installation

Cable tray, conduit, and pathway support work coordinated with your electrical and structural trades.

### Re-cabling & remediation

Tracing, correcting, and re-terminating problem runs in facilities with inconsistent or undocumented cabling history.

## How it works

1. **Scope the run** — Confirm cable type, path, termination standard, and testing requirements before work starts.
2. **Install** — Cable is run, dressed, and supported along its path to the termination point.
3. **Terminate & test** — Every run is terminated and certified, with results logged per cable ID.
4. **Label & document** — Labeling and documentation happen as part of the install, not as a follow-up project.

## Who this is for

- Data center operators and tenants needing new or corrected cabling
- General contractors needing a data-center-literate cabling subcontractor
- Colocation facilities standardizing cabling across multiple tenant spaces
- Anyone inheriting a facility with undocumented or inconsistent cabling

## Frequently asked questions

### Do you handle both copper and fiber, or just one?

Both. Most data center projects need a mix — Cat6/Cat6A for top-of-rack and general connectivity, fiber for backbone and longer runs — and we scope and price each run according to what it actually needs.

### Do you provide certified test results, not just a continuity check?

Yes — every run is tested with a certifier and the results are documented and delivered per cable, so you have a real record, not just our word that it works.

### Can you work as a subcontractor under our GC or electrical contractor?

Yes — this is a common arrangement. We coordinate directly with the GC or trade partner managing the project and report progress against their schedule.
