The backbone everything else runs on. Cat6, Cat6A, and fiber — run, terminated, tested, and certified. New builds, remodels, and add-a-drop jobs, done to standard.

Detroit’s comeback is a cabling story nobody tells. Century towers downtown have risers packed with decades of abandoned copper. Supplier offices in Troy and Southfield are conventional but often carry cabling installed for a business that operated very differently. Converted plant space has masonry and open structure. We engineer the drop plan for the building in front of us and certify every run.
Metro Detroit spans century-old office towers coming back online downtown, plant and supplier space converting to mixed use, and a deep bench of suburban office in Southfield, Troy and Livonia built for the automotive supply chain.
Decades of dead cable competing for pathway. Removal is frequently part of the scope.
Troy, Southfield and Livonia stock cabled for a prior era of density.
Masonry, open structure, and long horizontal distances.
High per-seat data density and often a demanding internal IT standard.
NEC plenum and fire-stopping requirements apply, and abandoned cable in plenum spaces is a fire-load issue inspectors cite. Michigan commercial work follows normal electrical permitting for any line-voltage component of the install.
Removing dead copper to create pathway for what actually works.
Bringing density up to what the current business actually needs.
Test results in a format an automotive customer’s audit will accept.

Metro Detroit is a regional market for us — engineering, design and project management from our team, installation through vetted Wayne and Oakland County crews rather than rotating marketplace labor. For supplier and manufacturing clients who face customer audits, that consistency matters: the same documentation standards, the same certification formats, and a project manager who can answer a customer’s question about your infrastructure without starting from scratch.
One crew, one quote, and none of the “that’s not in scope” surprises. Here’s what a ClearMax structured cabling & low-voltage wiring job includes.
Cat6, Cat6A, and fiber pulled through walls, ceilings, and plenum spaces to your drop locations.
Keystone jacks and patch panels terminated clean, to TIA/EIA standard.
Every drop tested and certified — you get the results, not a promise.
J-hooks, tray, and conduit installed so future runs are easy and code-compliant.
Both ends of every run labeled and mapped to your patch panel.
Fishing new drops into existing space with minimal disruption and clean patching.
From first walkthrough to hand-off, you always know what’s next and what it costs.
We map drop locations, pathways, and the IT closet before pulling a single cable.
Per-drop or project pricing, itemized. Coordinated around your buildout timeline.
Cable run through proper pathways, terminated to jacks and panels, dressed clean.
Every run tested and certified, labeled both ends, with results handed to you.
We install for specific industries and speak their software and compliance. Find your specialist page:
Line-by-line, so you know what every dollar buys.
No subcontractor roulette. One accountable team.
Hardware at our cost. We don’t mark it up.
Want us to keep it running? Roll it into managed IT.
Yes. Suppliers often face customer audits that ask for documented infrastructure, and certification results per run are exactly that evidence. We deliver test reports in standard formats rather than a verbal assurance the cable is fine.
It usually needs to go. Abandoned cable accumulating in plenum spaces is a fire-load violation in most jurisdictions, and in packed downtown risers removal is often necessary just to fit the new runs.
Intermediate distribution frames, and fiber backbone between them where distance requires. Copper caps at 100 meters including patch cords, so on large plant floors the IDF layout is the design decision that matters.
