Network engineering firm · New York City
We design, install, fix, and support UniFi networks for buildings that need it done cleanly — WiFi, switching, cabling, cameras, access, and phones. You work with the engineers doing the job — not a sales layer, not a ticket queue, not a mystery subcontractor.
UniFi is what we live in, but the network doesn’t stop at the access points. Cabling, cameras, access control, phones — we design and install all of it, so there’s no finger-pointing between vendors when something needs to work.
Network, Protect, Access, Talk, all on one controller — designed, installed, and supported by the same team. Multi-site management, console health checks, and WiFi planned against the real floor plan before anything ships. When we hand over, your team has the as-built drawings, port maps, and credentials to run it without us.
Greenfield builds and refactors of networks that grew without a plan. We settle the topology, VLANs, IP scheme, and firewall rules on paper first — so the design is decided before anyone pulls cable, not during.
Predictive heatmaps, on-site validation, AP rationalization, channel planning, transmit-power tuning under load.
Cat6, Cat6A, OM4 risers, labeled patch panels, tested and photo-documented at handoff.
UniFi Protect: G4 / G5 / AI placement, lens selection, NVR sizing, motion-zone tuning, real coverage maps.
Card, fob, mobile-credential, video intercom. Door schedules, anti-passback, tenant-managed credentials.
Internal tools, integration platforms, parametric CAD automation — when off-the-shelf will not fit the brief.
When the network's misbehaving and nobody can say why: a senior engineer spends a day on-site auditing the topology, surveying RF, and reviewing the config, then tells you exactly what's wrong and what to do about it.
Optional after-care: console health checks, firmware windows, backups, on-call for incidents.
You’ve got a building, a deadline, and a network nobody owns yet. We can take it from there. We design the entire network, deploy it, and defend it so you can focus on the projects and people you care about, not the network behind it.
A senior engineer walks the building, gets the brief straight, and hands back a full design — AP placements, cable schedules, port maps, VLAN layout, and an itemized bill of materials — before anyone installs a thing.
One team runs the cabling, racks, UniFi, cameras, access, and phones on a single schedule. When we leave, your team knows what was installed, how it's connected, and who can safely touch it next — port maps, as-built drawings, and admin credentials, all yours.
Optional managed service: console health checks, firmware update windows, configuration backups, and on-call for incidents. Three tiers, priced per device — no surprise scope.
They are the most capable network engineers we have worked with. We bring ShiftCTRL in as our network partner across the client sites we manage — the work is precise, and the documentation they leave behind makes everything afterward easy.
ShiftCTRL built our network from the ground up and installed our camera system end to end. It was all planned out before they arrived, the install was clean, and it has run without a hitch since. A genuinely great team to work with.
Our site spans more than 60 acres across several buildings, and ShiftCTRL connected all of it — point-to-point links, full wireless coverage, and fast, dependable connections everywhere we need them. They ran the whole build start to finish.
WiFi 7's 46 Gbps headline is a lab ceiling you'll never see. The question that decides whether it's worth buying is narrower: can your uplink, switch, cabling and clients actually use any of it? A network engineer's decision framework — where it pays off, where it's idle capability, and how to tell — with the UniFi U7 lineup as the worked example.
Apple App Store downloads take all day while everything else is fast and cellular works fine — and the UniFi gateway gets blamed. The reframe that saves a wasted day: Apple-only slowness is almost never bandwidth. The two real causes are DNS-driven CDN edge-steering and Apple's privacy features (Limit IP Address Tracking / Private Relay) — with the diagnostic order, the ranked fixes, and why the answer is not always Cloudflare.
A UniFi console is the router, firewall, recorder, and controller in one box — and in 2026 it became the target. Three Ubiquiti advisories in three months, several unauthenticated and CVSS 10.0, plus a rogue super-admin on unpatched consoles. The six-axis hardening posture we run on production sites: patch fast, no WAN exposure, segment, MFA, least privilege, and the admin audit.
A new building, a multi-site rollout, a UDM that won’t stay up, or an internal tool you wish existed — tell us what you’re working on. A senior engineer reads every inbound and replies within one business day.
