What is a lead-in cable?

The lead-in cable is the end-point of the service provider’s network. One end is connected to your property and the other is fed from the network, either from a telegraph pole or the underground pit on the edge of your property boundary. The lead-in is the telecommunications cable that provides you with phone, NBN or ADSL internet capabilities.

The terminology for lead-in cables will vary, but essentially, it’s the same thing:

• HFC / coaxial cable
• Lead-in conduit
• Conduit from pit to house
• NBN cable from pit to house
• Telecommunications lead-in cable
• Phone line trenching

Has your cable been damaged and needs repairing?

If your service provider has visited your property and determined that your lead-in cable is damaged or non-existent, but has asked you to contact a private technician, we’re here to help. It has become increasingly common that your service provider won’t do this work for you, or you’ll have to wait in a queue of up to 12 weeks. We understand that this is a very frustrating position to be in. Our friendly technicians are familiar with the service provider process and can provide advice and guidance, simply get in contact with us. In many cases, your provider may recommend contacting a private NBN technician to carry out the required cabling work within your property.

Rest assured we’ll get the job done quickly and without hassle. Our licensed cable technicians will take care of the digging, trenching, installation and testing. We only use telco-approved cable and parts with all of our services. We’ll sort everything out for you and ensure that we leave your property neat and tidy. We can also prepare a report of our diagnosis and findings to share with your service provider if it turns out to be a network fault.

Has your home been re-built and you need a cable installed?

If your builder has asked you to hire a third-party contractor to install a lead-in cable, have no fear, we’ve done many of these jobs for homes all over Sydney. All work performed will adhere to the Australian standards, using telco-approved cable and we’ll also find the neatest method of installation to ensure the lead-in cable work doesn’t interfere with the aesthetics of your new home.

Lead-In Cable Installation for New Homes

Builders often ask homeowners to organise a private technician to install the lead-in cable connecting the property to the telecommunications network. Our licensed cablers can install new lead-in cables for homes across Sydney, ensuring the connection meets all Australian telecommunications standards.

We also offer a consult before you build service, helping homeowners plan the best pathway for lead-in cables and internal cabling before construction begins. This can prevent costly changes later and ensure your home is ready for NBN, phone and internet services from day one.
