Greenwood Telephones, Home & Office, 02 Oct 2002 – present
I established Greenwood Telephones, Home & Office in 2002, undertaking Structured Cabling Networks, Telephone system installation, relocation, expansion, fault finding & repair. Internal cabling, fault finding & repair, installation of ADSL Central Splitters both commercial & domestic. Installation of new lead in cable & repair to damaged lead in cables.
As well as building our own customer base over the years we have sub-contracted to other telecommunications & electrical contractors.

I cabled, fit off, tested & labelled 154 data network outlets for Alan Jones Electrical at Belmont Council Chambers by myself in April – May 2004.
I was part of a team of 6 that cabled, fit off, tested & labelled 560+ Cat6 data network outlets for Downer Connect at UWA Arts Department. I was one of two Telecommunications Technicians & the only sub-contractor in the group. I terminated all of the patch panels in the comms room by myself. This job ran from the end of December 2004 – March 2005.
We have done more sub-contract work for Cycle Electrics & EMBAR Electrical than anybody else in recent years. We have advised & assisted them on many small, medium & larger projects.
We also work closely with ASCEND Business Technology & Howell Builders, as well as occasionally helping out Kinross Electrical & Austlec Electrical Services.
We are the preferred contractor for Rockingham City Shopping Centre & Midland Gate Shopping Centre for new connections & fault finding.
While we mostly do work for small & medium sized businesses, I feel confidant & capable of tackling larger projects.
Greenwood Telephones, Home & Office is an Authorised Dealer for Aristel Networks Pty Ltd, supplying & installing Legacy & VoIP telephone systems.
