NBN Relocation & Home Network Upgrade in Eltham
The Brief: Centralising a Messy Home Network
The homeowner contacted Cable & Connect looking to improve their home network performance and presentation. The existing setup had the NBN connection and network equipment scattered under the stairs, with exposed cabling and limited organisation. It worked, but it wasn’t reliable, scalable, or visually appealing.
The goal was simple: relocate the NBN, centralise all networking equipment, and create a clean, professional setup that would support CCTV, smart home technology and future upgrades.
🧰 Our Solution: A Clean, Future-Proof Network Setup
Cable & Connect designed and installed a complete home network solution, relocating the NBN connection and creating a dedicated networking hub under the staircase.
Works completed included:
Relocation of the NBN connection to a discreet under-stairs location
Installation of a 6RU wall-mounted data rack to securely house all equipment
Supply and installation of a 16-port PoE network switch, power rail and patch panel
Installation of 7 new Cat6 data points throughout the home
All cabling run neatly through wall and ceiling cavities for a seamless finish
All data outlets terminated, labelled and tested for performance and reliability
All cabling and components used were ACMA-approved, ensuring the installation meets Australian standards and is safe, compliant, and built to last.
🔄 Before & After: The Difference Professional Cabling Makes
Before the upgrade, the space under the stairs was cluttered with loose cabling and unorganised equipment. After installation, the network is fully centralised inside a secure data rack, with labelled connections, improved airflow, and easy access for maintenance or future expansion.
The result is not just a visual improvement, but a more stable, faster and more reliable home network.
📡 The Result: Smarter Connectivity for Modern Homes
This upgraded network now supports:
CCTV and security systems
Smart home technology
Reliable wired and wireless internet connections
Easy upgrades and troubleshooting in the future
By investing in proper data cabling and network infrastructure, the homeowner now has a system that is ready for modern digital demands.
