Data points for homes and offices

A spare bedroom used as an office, a television that needs a wired plug, or a workplace desk with no data outlet is when you need an ethernet socket, meaning a wired network point in the wall.

  • Home office with no wall socketThe spare room has power, but the desk still needs a wired network plug in the wall.
  • Television that needs a wired plugThe lounge set sits far from the router and a data point behind it gives a steady wired link.
  • Rental that now has a studyA landlord can add a data socket in a let and keep a written record for the tenancy file.
  • Office desk with no data socketA shop or office can have extra wall sockets added back to the existing cabinet, planned around the premises.

Data and network point installation questions

Still have a question?

How much does a data point cost?

A data or networking point from TMB Electrics starts at £120. That starting price is for one wall socket, a tested wired link and a written record. Extra points or a longer cable run are named in the written price first.

Is a data point a mains socket?

No, a data point is an ethernet socket for a wired network, not a mains power outlet. Socket and switch installation is a separate job from £80 if the same desk also needs extra power. Both can be set out on the same written price.

Do you fit ethernet sockets in houses?

Yes. TMB Electrics fits data and network points in houses, rentals and workplaces. The new socket is wired back to your router or cabinet and then tested.

What happens after I book a data point?

TMB Electrics issues a written price for the data point, then books the visit around the property. On the day the socket is fitted, the link is tested and the written record is left with you.

Do I get a certificate for a data point?

You are left with a written record of the data point work. A minor works certificate is a separate item from £80 when that document is needed for the job.
