Network & Connectivity · Structured Wiring & Wi-Fi

Whole-home Wi-Fi begins as structured wiring.

Whole-home Wi-Fi that reaches the far bedroom, the garage, and the back patio starts as structured wiring: a dedicated ethernet run from one rack to every keypad, TV, camera, and access point, in Columbus and Raleigh homes still on paper or already finished.

Prewire, planned with your builder

Marked on the plans, pulled at rough-in.

It starts on the floor plans. We mark every keypad, TV, camera, and access point location, then pull the wire during rough-in, before insulation and drywall, in a window scheduled around your builder's other trades. Every job leaves with a real wiring diagram, so your builder knows exactly what's behind every wall, and so does the tech who opens the rack years later. It's the same plans-first process we run on every home network installation in Columbus and the Raleigh Triangle.

The backbone

Every system in the house rides these wires.

This is critical infrastructure. It goes in once, before drywall, sized for the house you're building and the one you'll keep adding to. Get it right and everything just works. The thermostats, the garage doors, the security cameras, TVs and the Wi-Fi in every corner: each one uses the network to connect to the internet and to each other.

Whole-home Wi-Fi

Whole-home Wi-Fi on a full holiday weekend.

Thanksgiving weekend: a stream running upstairs, a playlist on the patio, cameras recording, every guest's phone on the network, and nothing flinches. Our networks don't rely on one router in a closet. Each access point sits where stone, steel, and square footage say it has to, fed by its own wired ethernet run back to the enclosure, so the fullest weekend of the year feels like any other.

Finished homes

Home network installation in a finished home.

If your finished home has a dead zone in the primary suite and a shelf of blinking boxes in a closet, that's real work for us, and we take it: mesh upgrades, rack rebuilds, wired access points run through routes an installer can still reach, cleanup of wiring someone else left behind. No framing required, and no drywall opened that we can route around.

"Connesso put in a new mesh system to improve our Wi-Fi. As part of the install they cleaned up the wiring mess left by our builder."

The rack

The one place you can see the work.

Most of what we do disappears behind drywall. The head end is the one place you can see it: a structured-wiring enclosure in most homes, a full rack in larger ones, every cable dressed by hand, combed flat, labeled at both ends, with service loops left for whatever the house needs next. Years from now, a tech traces any line in seconds, which is why service visits stay short. Ask us to open it. We're glad to.
Brand stack

Chosen for the house, not the catalog.

A plaster-and-stone house loads a network differently than an open plan, so we spec per house: eero, UniFi, or Araknis at the rack and in the ceilings, ethernet and fiber in the walls, every access point wired rather than chained wirelessly. If you ever want the reasoning, we'll walk you through the diagram. If you never ask, it just works.

FAQ

Structured wiring and home network questions.

What is structured wiring, in plain terms?
It's one dedicated cable per device: an ethernet run from a central enclosure or rack to every keypad, TV, camera, and access point in the house, each labeled at both ends so any line traces in seconds for the life of the home. Everything else, the Wi-Fi included, plugs into it.
What's the difference between prewire and the finished install?
Prewire is the part you'll never see: cable going into the open frame during rough-in, documented on a wiring diagram your builder keeps. The finished work is the part you live with: keypads on the wall, access points in the ceiling, the enclosure or rack lit and labeled. When the first part is done right, the second goes fast, and no finished wall gets cut open.
Will whole-home Wi-Fi hold up with a house full of guests?
That's the condition we design for. No access point leans on another wirelessly; each has its own ethernet run back to the enclosure, placed on the floor plan and sized to the construction.
How long does structured wiring take in a new build?
A few days at rough-in for the pull, scheduled around your builder's other trades, then a second window after close-in for terminations, mounting, and the enclosure or rack. Both dates go on the build calendar at the start, so neither one is a day you'll notice.
Can you install a home network in an existing home?
Yes, and it usually starts with an assessment of what's already in the walls. Some homes have usable runs that were never terminated properly; some need new cable pulled to key ceilings and corners. Either way, you get a plan before any work starts, and a network that finally matches the house.
Is structured wiring the same thing as low voltage wiring?
Close. Structured wiring is the data backbone, the ethernet and fiber; a low voltage contractor pulls those runs plus the speaker, camera, and security wiring on the same visit, all of it marked on the floor plans and pulled at rough-in.
Getting started

The wire goes in once.

Whether it's a set of plans on a table or a finished home with a dead zone in the primary suite, send us what you have. We'll mark up the runs or walk the house, and tell you exactly what it needs.
