For over 30 years, DS1 Phone Systems has been installing and supporting structured cabling for businesses across North Carolina, and that includes Greensboro, a city that has been a communications and transportation crossroads since the railroads made it the “Gate City” over a century ago. That same crossroads spirit runs through the Piedmont Triad today, from the offices near Downtown Greensboro and Elm Street to the retail and professional space around Friendly Center, the Battleground Avenue and Wendover Avenue corridors, and the manufacturing and logistics activity out toward PTI Airport and the Piedmont Triad megasite. We know a one-size-fits-all cabling job doesn’t work for every business, so we design every project around how your company actually operates.

Serving Greensboro’s Business Districts and Guilford County
We work with businesses throughout Greensboro and Guilford County, from downtown offices near Elm Street and Friendly Center to companies along the Wendover Avenue corridor and businesses supporting the healthcare, education, and manufacturing employers that anchor the Piedmont Triad economy, including small professional offices near UNCG. Beyond Greensboro itself, we provide structured cabling throughout the surrounding Piedmont Triad, including High Point, Winston-Salem, Kernersville, and Jamestown, as well as businesses that also have a location in Charlotte.
Our Structured Cabling Process
Every project starts with a thorough site survey. Before we run a single cable, we walk your space, review your existing infrastructure, and talk with you about how your business uses technology today and where you expect to be in five or ten years. This lets us design a cabling system that fits your actual needs instead of a generic template.
Once the design is finalized, we schedule the installation around your business hours to minimize disruption. Our technicians label every run, organize your equipment racks, and keep your workspace clean throughout the project, whether we’re working in an occupied office or a space still under construction.
After installation, every cable run is tested and certified to meet TIA/EIA-568 standards. We don’t consider a job finished until we’ve confirmed your network performs the way it’s supposed to, and we document the results so you have a record of what was installed.
Voice, Video & Data Cabling in One System
Modern businesses run more than just computers over their network. Phone systems, security cameras, access control, and video conferencing all depend on the same cabling infrastructure. We design our structured cabling installations to support all of it — voice, video, and data — on one clean, well-documented system instead of a patchwork of separate wiring added over the years.
If you’re also evaluating your phone system, take a look at our business phone systems for Greensboro page or our cloud phone systems for Greensboro page to see how a hosted PBX or VoIP system can run on the same cabling infrastructure we install.

Yes, we frequently work with contractors and property managers to run cabling during the construction or renovation process, before walls and ceilings are closed up.
Do you provide service outside of Greensboro?
Yes, we serve businesses throughout Guilford County, the Piedmont Triad, and the greater Charlotte metro area.
Recent Structured Cabling Projects
We recently completed a structured cabling project for ACMi, a Charlotte-area manufacturing business that needed a complete overhaul of their outdated network infrastructure. Their existing cabling was a patchwork of unlabeled runs added over many years, making troubleshooting nearly impossible for their IT staff.
We started with a full site survey, mapped out every device and connection point, and designed a new structured cabling system built around clearly labeled, properly managed cable runs. The result was a clean, organized network infrastructure that their team could finally understand and maintain.
Around the same time, we completed a similar project for Performance Precast, another Charlotte-area business that needed reliable network cabling installed in a busy warehouse and office environment. We ran voice, video, and data cabling through the facility, installed and organized their equipment racks, and tested and certified every connection before handoff.
Both projects are a good example of the same site-survey-to-certification process we bring to Greensboro businesses — a thorough, organized approach that leaves you with a network infrastructure built to last.
