5-Year Workmanship Warranty.

Every cable run, termination, patch panel, and mounting fixture we install is backed by the OG Guarantee — our 5-year workmanship warranty. If any part of the physical installation fails due to a workmanship fault, we repair or replace it at no cost.

Hardware is backed by manufacturer and distributor warranty programs appropriate to what's specified — the details are set out in every quote and confirmed again at handover.

5
Year Warranty

Workmanship Warranty

All structured cabling, patch panel punch-downs, wall-plate terminations, and hardware mounting are guaranteed free from installation defects for five years. If a cable run or physical termination fails due to an installation fault, we'll repair or replace it at no cost.

Handled Hardware Claims

If a supplied device develops a fault, we manage the whole process on your behalf — inspection, vendor or manufacturer liaison, and claim lodgement — through to a replacement unit being back in service.

We Manage The Claim

Licence & Subscription-Free Hardware

Every core hardware component we specify — cameras, network gear, access control readers — is licence-free and subscription-free by design. You buy it once, you own it outright, and it keeps working with no forced monthly fees. Optional add-on software features (like remote voice assistant access or wallet-based door unlock) may carry their own small subscription from the manufacturer, and we'll always flag that upfront if you want one.

Local knowledge, quality gear, clean installs.

OG Data is an Illawarra-based business serving both residential clients and small to medium businesses — from a single ethernet point in a bedroom to a full structured cabling, camera, and automation system for an office. We handle everything ourselves: no mystery subcontractors, no surprises on the day.

We use Ubiquiti's UniFi platform exclusively for networking and cameras because it's the best system available at the price point — and because we know it inside out. Every install is documented, labelled, and left in a state you can hand to any technician down the track.

Local Trade Business — Full-Stack Network & CCTV Migration

Commercial Illawarra and Shoalhaven Region Ubiquiti Networking UniFi Protect CCTV Structured Cabling Network Migration

The Situation

An established trade business in the Illawarra was running on an ageing managed network with poor segmentation and unreliable connectivity. The site already had a handful of existing Uniview IP cameras recording to a Uniview NVR with basic remote viewing via the manufacturer's app, but no integration into the wider network or a unified system. The business needed a complete infrastructure uplift — new cabling, a proper managed network, and a unified CCTV system — while making full use of the existing cameras rather than replacing hardware that still worked well.

What Was Installed

  • UniFi Cloud Gateway Ultra — gateway and network controller in one
  • UniFi USW Lite 8 PoE — managed PoE switch for cameras and APs
  • UniFi UNVR Instant — replaced the client's existing Uniview NVR with local, integrated NVR storage
  • UniFi U7 Lite — ceiling-mounted Wi-Fi 7 access point
  • UniFi G6 cameras — added for key areas requiring AI-powered smart detection and remote viewing
  • Existing Uniview cameras integrated via ONVIF into the new UniFi Protect system — no need to replace hardware that was still doing its job
  • 6-port structured cabling installation — Cat6, wall plates, patch panel
  • 10" wall-mounted rack — all equipment neatly housed and labelled

Network Architecture

The network was designed with proper VLAN segmentation: a dedicated IoT/camera VLAN isolates the CCTV system from business traffic, a guest Wi-Fi network keeps visitor devices sandboxed, and the main LAN carries staff workstations and point-of-sale. Every port is labelled and the full network is documented for any future technician.

Migration Process

The cutover from the old managed provider was handled in stages to avoid downtime. Cabling was run first, the new rack commissioned and tested offline, then a same-day migration was performed — new gateway live, old provider equipment decommissioned, staff devices moved across and confirmed working before end of business.

The result is a fully documented, locally managed network and camera system that the business owns outright — no ongoing managed-service fees, unified remote viewing from any device, AI smart detection on the native UniFi cameras, and the 5-year OG Guarantee covering all workmanship on the install. It's also proof that upgrading doesn't mean starting from scratch — existing cameras were brought into the new system rather than binned.
