TP-Link Omada certified. Site surveys, access points, VLANs, guest portals, and managed wireless networks for Belfast businesses.
Most Belfast businesses we visit are running one of two setups: the ISP-supplied router trying to cover an entire building, or a collection of consumer extenders and repeaters that create more problems than they solve. Both result in the same complaints: dead spots in meeting rooms, VoIP calls dropping, video freezing mid-presentation, and printers going offline at random.
A proper business Wi-Fi installation fixes all of these. It starts with understanding your building, your users, and what they need the network to do.
We visit your premises, walk the building, and assess: wall materials (plasterboard is easy, brick is harder, concrete and metal are worst), floor plan, ceiling type (dropped ceilings make cable runs simple), number of users and devices, existing cabling, and what applications the Wi-Fi needs to support (VoIP, video meetings, guest access, card machines, warehouse scanners).
Based on the survey, we design the access point layout. How many APs, where they go, what channels they use, and what cabling is needed. The design accounts for interference from neighbouring networks (Belfast offices are dense, particularly in the city centre where dozens of networks compete).
Cat6 Ethernet from each access point location back to a central PoE switch. PoE (Power over Ethernet) means each AP gets data and power from a single cable. No separate power supplies. Clean installation with trunking or within ceiling voids where possible.
Ceiling-mounted or wall-mounted depending on the building. Positioned for optimal coverage, not just wherever is convenient. Each AP covers its designated zone with overlap for smooth roaming between zones.
Coverage tested in all areas. Speed tested. VoIP call quality verified. Guest portal tested. Documentation provided showing what was installed, where, and how to access the management dashboard.
We are TP-Link Omada OCNA certified and also experienced with Ubiquiti UniFi. For most Belfast business deployments, we recommend Omada for its value, cloud management, and PPSK support. For businesses needing cameras and door access on the same platform, UniFi may be the better fit.
Read our detailed TP-Link Omada vs Ubiquiti UniFi comparison to understand the differences.
A typical small office Wi-Fi upgrade (2 to 3 Omada access points, Cat6 cabling to each location, VLAN setup, and cloud management) usually runs between £600 and £1,200 depending on building size and cable routing. Larger deployments with more access points, complex cable routes, or guest portal configuration will be quoted after a site survey. Site surveys are free and provide a fixed price with no obligation.
