  • Camera coverage, cabling, and rack organization needed to be tightened up.
  • The network setup needed to support daily restaurant operations and future growth.

After

  • Structured cabling was installed throughout the space.
  • Six high-resolution cameras and a recording server were added.

Hardware & Systems Used

Core infrastructure used to support the restaurant network and camera system.

Structured Cabling
Six Security Cameras
Video Recording Server
Wall-Mounted Network Rack
PoE Switching
Surge Protection
Ongoing Support

Clean infrastructure is easier to manage after the install is done.

Everything was installed cleanly, labeled clearly, and built to scale. That matters because a restaurant should not have to fight its network, camera system, or rack layout when the team is trying to run the business.

Support model: Structured cabling, cameras, network equipment, rack organization, and setup handled by one local team, making future support more straightforward.
