Structured Cabling Site Inspection at By Point Blue.
Comprehensive Site Assessment for Network Infrastructure
A comprehensive structured cabling site inspection was conducted across all nine By Point Blue residential buildings on July 7, 2026, from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM. The inspection was carried out to evaluate the current condition of the network infrastructure and determine the most suitable structured cabling solution for the client’s growing operational requirements. The technical team inspected every building to identify existing cable pathways, examine electrical equipment (EE) rooms, and assess ceiling structures that would support the installation of new network cabling. The gathered information will serve as the basis for selecting the appropriate materials, routing methods, and installation approach for the proposed project.
Evaluation of Existing Data Cabinet Conditions
During the inspection, the team discovered several issues affecting the reliability and maintainability of the existing network infrastructure. Data cabinets in eight of the nine buildings were found to be disorganized, with unlabelled cables, improper cable terminations, and excessive unused cable lengths. These conditions make troubleshooting and future maintenance significantly more difficult while increasing the risk of network interruptions. In addition, all nine buildings had network cables installed without protective PVC conduits, leaving the cabling vulnerable to physical damage, moisture, and rodent infestation.
Wireless Network and Installation Concerns
The inspection also revealed inconsistencies in the wireless network deployment throughout the properties. A combination of UniFi access points and Google routers was being used, resulting in a mixed networking environment that can complicate management and maintenance. Several unfinished cable drops and improvised access point mounting methods were observed, negatively affecting both network reliability and the overall interior appearance of the buildings. Furthermore, the client reported that several access points were no longer functioning properly, causing intermittent internet connectivity and service disruptions in multiple room units.
Network Design Challenges Identified
The technical team learned that the original building designs did not include dedicated cable drops for wireless access points because the initial plan relied primarily on a wireless mesh network using Google routers. As a result, the IT personnel were required to manually configure networking equipment from one building to another instead of managing the devices remotely through a centralized system. While this approach reduced initial installation costs, it created long-term challenges involving network scalability, maintenance efficiency, and overall performance. The client acknowledged that previous budget limitations contributed to the current state of the network infrastructure, leading them to seek the expertise of a third-party structured cabling specialist.
Proposed Project Requirements
Following the completion of the site inspection, the client requested two separate project quotations to support future decision-making. The first proposal will cover a complete Network Structured Cabling System integrated with CCTV structured cabling, while the second will focus solely on the installation of a structured network cabling system. In addition, the client requested a reliable uninterruptible power supply (UPS) capable of providing approximately 30 minutes of backup power. This solution will allow staff sufficient time to properly shut down the network equipment and data cabinets during unexpected power outages, reducing the risk of equipment damage and data loss.
Prioritization and Conclusion
As part of the implementation strategy, the client requested that the older buildings receive priority during the installation process, beginning with Teka by Point Blue, the oldest property in the portfolio, followed by the remaining locations based on age and infrastructure condition. The site inspection successfully identified numerous opportunities to improve network organization, reliability, and overall system performance. By implementing a professionally designed structured cabling system with proper cable management, standardized equipment installation, and enhanced power protection, the By Point Blue properties will benefit from a more stable, scalable, and maintainable network infrastructure capable of supporting both current operations and future technological expansion.
