Clean cable. Strong signal.
Data & Network Cabling in Gilbert, AZ
Wi-Fi dead zones, dropped transactions, a wiring closet that looks like a plate of spaghetti — bad cabling drags on a business every single day. The fix isn't another cheap switch. It's structured cable, run right.
AC/DC Electric runs data and network cabling for offices, retail, restaurants, and warehouses across Gilbert and the Valley. As a licensed electrical contractor, we treat low-voltage the same way we treat power: correct pathways, code-compliant cable, fire-rated penetrations, and every drop tested and labeled before we leave.

Watch for these
Signs your network wiring is holding you back
- Wi-Fi dies in half the building
- Switches daisy-chained under desks
- Cables taped across floors or doorways
- Jacks that have never worked
- POS terminals drop offline during the rush
- New hires have nowhere to plug in
Why an Electrician Should Pull Your Cable
Low-voltage cable still has to follow the rules. Plenum spaces need plenum-rated cable. Fire walls need sealed penetrations. Data can't ride alongside power without picking up interference. An electrician already knows the pathways through your building — and when a project needs new outlets or circuits along with the drops, one contractor handles both instead of two crews pointing at each other.
Restaurant and POS Cabling
A POS system that drops offline during Friday dinner service is a five-alarm problem, and it's one we know well. Restaurant and bar electrical is our specialty, and POS cabling comes with it: solid drops to every terminal, printer, and kitchen display screen, plus the access points that keep handhelds alive on the patio. Hardwired beats hopeful Wi-Fi every time it matters.
Why AC/DC Electric
Cabling jobs in occupied buildings are disruption jobs — ceilings open, ladders in aisles, drops going in over desks. Because we work 24/7, that disruption can happen while the building is empty. You come in Monday to labeled jacks and a clean closet, not a construction zone.
And every quote is flat and approved before the first cable gets pulled.

FAQ
Straight answers
Cat5e or Cat6 — what should I run?
For new drops, run Cat6. The cable cost difference is small compared to the labor of pulling it, and Cat6 gives you more headroom for faster equipment down the road. Ripping out fresh Cat5e in three years because your network outgrew it is the expensive path. Pull the better cable once.
Do you test and label every drop?
Every one. Each run gets tested for continuity and proper termination, labeled at both ends, and documented so your IT person — or the next contractor — can identify any jack in seconds. An unlabeled wiring closet turns every future network change into an archaeology dig. We don't leave those behind.
Can you run cable while my office is open?
We can, but overnight is better. Ceiling tiles come down, ladders block walkways, and drilling is loud. We schedule most occupied-building work for evenings or weekends so your staff never has to work around us. Around-the-clock availability means the network gets built without the business slowing down.
Can you handle the electrical work at the same time?
Yes — that's the advantage of hiring a [commercial electrician](/services/commercial-electrician-gilbert-az) for cabling. New workstations usually need outlets, not just jacks. Equipment rooms need dedicated circuits. Wall-mounted TVs need power behind them. We quote power and data as one scope, pull it as one job, and you deal with one contractor and one invoice.
