School Cabling, Cameras & Wi-Fi Los Angeles | Licensed C-7
Network cabling, cameras and Wi-Fi for Los Angeles schools
Los Angeles Unified is the second-largest school district in the country, and around it sit hundreds of charter schools, private and parochial schools, preschools and career colleges, plus UCLA, USC, Cal State Northridge, LACC, Trade Tech and Occidental. The buildings range from 1920s brick in Boyle Heights to converted office space in Koreatown to portable classrooms on a Valley lot.

All of them need Wi-Fi in every classroom, cabling for testing days, cameras at the gates and drop-off, and doors that lock from a front office button.
We work with school administrators and facilities staff who do not have an IT department. We run Cat6 and fiber between buildings, install campus Wi-Fi that holds up when 30 Chromebooks in a room hit the same test, put cameras on entrances, playgrounds and parking lots, and install access control so a propped gate on Vermont Ave is not the default. Work is scheduled over breaks and weekends so nothing happens during class.
School and campus projects run on the academic calendar, so we plan installs for breaks and evenings and coordinate with facilities, IT and the district's security standards. Camera placement respects privacy areas while covering every entry and gathering space.
The problems we get called for
- Multiple entrances and campuses that are hard to watch at once
- Visitor management and after-hours access for staff and vendors
- Old cabling that cannot support modern cameras and Wi-Fi
- Wi-Fi that drops when every student opens a device
What we install
- Campus-wide camera coverage of entries, corridors, lots and fields
- Access control with lockdown capability and visitor check-in
- High-density Wi-Fi designed for one-to-one devices
- Structured cabling and fiber between buildings
- Paging and bell integration with the AV system
Education & Schools across Los Angeles
Charter schools in South LA and the Eastside often lease older church or commercial buildings with no conduit, so we plan raceway that is tidy and tamper-resistant. Private schools on the Westside and in the Valley have multi-building campuses that call for fiber between buildings and consistent Wi-Fi across each. Preschools and childcare centers in Hollywood and Koreatown want front-door cameras and buzz-in entry that satisfy parent expectations. Anything on a leased building needs landlord sign-off, and fire-rated penetrations go through LADBS. We handle both.
Cameras that stop theft, not just record it
AI Camera Monitoring watches your Los Angeles property around the clock, warns intruders off with live audio the moment they step on site, and escalates real threats with video-verified dispatch. It works with cameras we install and, in most cases, with the cameras you already have.

Education & Schools in Los Angeles — questions we get
Can you install classroom Wi-Fi at a Los Angeles charter or private school?
Yes. We survey each building, then install an access point per classroom or per pair of classrooms with cabling to a PoE switch, so a room of 30 students on Chromebooks stays connected during state testing. Separate networks for staff, students and guests are standard. We schedule the install over a break. The site survey is free and we walk it with your office manager.
What security cameras and door controls do Los Angeles schools typically need?
Cameras at every gate and entrance, the drop-off lane, playground, parking lot and main hallways, recorded for at least 30 days. Access control on the main entry with a buzz-in from the front office, and lockable classroom doors staff can secure quickly. We design around your campus on a free site survey and avoid restrooms and locker rooms, which cannot be recorded under California law.
Do you work with LAUSD or only private schools in Los Angeles?
Our school work is mostly charters, private and parochial schools, preschools and career colleges, where the school itself hires the contractor. District facilities go through LAUSD's own procurement and contractor requirements. If you run an independent campus anywhere in LA, from Sylmar to San Pedro, we can cable it, cover it with cameras, and support the network afterward.
Can you install security cameras at a school during the year?
Yes. We schedule work after hours and over breaks, keep classrooms clear during the day and coordinate with facilities so there is no disruption to instruction.
Do you install lockdown-capable access control for schools?
Yes. Classroom and exterior doors can be locked from the front office or a phone in one step, with card and fob access for staff and audit logs.
Can you design Wi-Fi for a one-to-one device program?
Yes. We design from a heat map with one access point per classroom or two where device counts demand it, on Cat6A cabling with separate networks for students, staff and guests.
