Frequently Asked Questions – Leisure and Hospitality Data Cabling
Q. Can cabling work happen while a hotel or venue stays open?
Yes. Work is phased around guest occupancy and business hours, with disruptive tasks scheduled outside peak periods.
Q. Can guest Wi-Fi be kept separate from business systems?
Yes. Networks are designed with proper segmentation so guest Wi-Fi, point-of-sale and back-office systems stay separated.
Q. Do you test and certify the cabling before handover?
Yes. Every cable run is tested and certified, with documentation handed over so your team has a clear record of what has been installed.
Q. Can the cabling support future upgrades, like new entertainment or booking systems?
Designs include spare capacity so additional systems can be added later without a full re-cable.

I have been dealing with Wayne at ACCL for some time now, as I was tasked by my employer to refurbish our server cabinets across 30 offices in London. I can’t begin to express how good Wayne and his guys are. They have replaced and refurbished a large number of our server cabinets so far, with no issues, all in a very timely manner.
They have done a highly professional job, have always kept in contact, and have given us advice/suggestions on what was needed when we weren’t too sure. I would highly recommend using ACCL for any IT/Cabling work.
