If the buildings are more than a few hundred feet apart, or on separate electrical services, yes. Copper Ethernet is limited to about 328 feet and carrying it between separately grounded buildings invites damage. Fiber has no distance issue at campus scale and is immune to that electrical problem. We assess the pathway during the free site survey.

Yes. Fiber is the right choice for docks, marina gates and fuel docks in Newport Harbor because it does not corrode like copper and it handles the long runs from the office to the end of the pier. We use outdoor and direct-burial rated fiber in conduit, terminate in sealed enclosures and test the link end to end.

A floor-to-floor riser run with terminations in a Newport Center tower is often a one or two day job once the building engineer has approved riser access. Multi-building campus runs depend on conduit condition and whether trenching is needed. We give a schedule with the quote after the free site survey.

When a run is longer than 100 meters, when it crosses between buildings or floors with separate electrical grounds, or when you need more than 10 Gbps. Camera systems on large lots and campuses usually need fiber to the far poles.

Yes. We locate the break with an OTDR, splice or re-terminate, and re-test. Most single breaks are fixed the same day once we are on site.

Every strand is tested with an optical power meter and, on longer runs, an OTDR. You get the loss report with the invoice.
