Cables laid on ceiling tiles, missing firestopping and overfilled conduit are common shortcuts. They cause inspection failures and make future expansion painful.
Unsealed penetrations and code issues can stop a project.
Unsupported runs sag, kink and fail over time.
Undersized pathways force costly rework on the next project.
Cavonet installs EMT conduit, innerduct, cable tray, J-hooks and firestopping so your cabling is protected, compliant and ready to grow.
Installation of EMT conduit systems for exposed, protected, and code compliant cable pathways throughout commercial, industrial, and retail environments.
Placement of innerduct within conduit systems to protect fiber optic cables, simplify future upgrades, and improve cable management inside shared pathways.
Installation of basket tray, ladder tray, and overhead cable support systems designed to keep telecommunications cabling organized, accessible, and properly supported.
Core drilling, sleeve installation, and pathway penetrations between MDFs, IDFs, telecom rooms, and tenant spaces to create clean cable routing paths.
Sealing of cable penetrations using approved firestop materials to maintain fire rated wall and floor assemblies while meeting local code requirements.
Strategic pathway design that accounts for cable growth, maintenance access, bend radius requirements, and future technology expansions, reducing costly rework later.
Loop us in early. Getting the pathway right first makes the rest of the project faster and cleaner.
Pathways protect cable, keep installs compliant and make future additions faster. Cable laid on ceiling tiles or bundled on pipes is cheaper at first and more expensive at every change after.
EMT protects cable in exposed or high-risk areas. Innerduct protects fiber inside larger pathways. Cable tray or J-hooks support large volumes of cable overhead. Most buildings use a mix.
When cable passes through fire-rated walls or floors, the openings must be sealed with approved materials so fire and smoke can’t spread. Inspectors commonly check it.
Plan for growth. Filling conduit or tray to capacity on day one means the next project has nowhere to go.
Yes. We coordinate with project managers and other trades so pathways go in before ceilings close, which is far easier than retrofitting later.
EMT (Electrical Metallic Tubing) is a rigid metal conduit commonly used for exposed indoor and outdoor cable pathways where physical protection and a clean appearance are important. Liquid tight flexible conduit is designed for areas where equipment vibration, movement, or difficult routing requires flexibility. Liquid tight conduit is commonly used for rooftop equipment, outdoor cameras, wireless access points, and connections to devices that may move or require easier servicing.
Innerduct is typically installed when fiber optic cabling is being pulled through larger conduits. It provides additional protection for the fiber, reduces friction during cable installation, and makes future cable additions or replacements easier without disturbing existing cables. Innerduct is especially beneficial in shared conduit systems and campus backbone installations.
In most outdoor applications, yes. Standard EMT fittings may allow moisture to enter the conduit system over time. Rain tight couplings and connectors are designed to help prevent water intrusion and are commonly required where EMT conduit is exposed to weather. Using the proper fittings helps protect cabling and extend the life of the installation.
Cable trays provide dedicated support for telecommunications cabling and help maintain organization, accessibility, and proper cable separation. Unlike unsupported cable bundles resting on ceiling structures, cable trays create a professional pathway that simplifies maintenance, future additions, and troubleshooting while helping projects meet industry standards.
When cables pass through fire rated walls or floors, the opening must be properly sealed to maintain the fire resistance rating of the building assembly. Approved firestopping materials help prevent the spread of fire, smoke, and toxic gases between rooms and floors. Proper firestopping is often required by building codes and is a critical part of a compliant cabling installation.
