A wireless access point still needs a data cable — usually a Cat6 or Cat6A run that can also carry power from a switch over the same pair of conductors, commonly called Power over Ethernet. This page is about placing and testing those cables to locations an owner or a wireless designer has planned: office ceilings, conference rooms, and, in warehouses, a grid that may need lifts and longer spans. Metroplex Cabling does not sell wireless equipment and does not offer a wireless-design professional service of its own.

What this is, and what it is not
Power over Ethernet on an existing switch is generally still on the low-voltage side of a data job. A new wall outlet or a new dedicated circuit that feeds the switch is line-voltage electrical work and is not offered on this site. Likewise, a cable run to a camera location is data cabling only if it is just the cable. Mounting, configuring, or commissioning a recording camera system, or installing access control, is regulated security work and is not advertised here. If your project is mainly cameras or access control, this is the wrong page.
Per-drop ranges on the cost guide are the right planning context for copper runs to access points. Height, lift rental, and after-hours work can move a warehouse grid well above a simple office average. Ask the partner to state those assumptions.
