The residential network is no longer just a router in the understairs cupboard. A typical home runs streaming on multiple TVs, gaming consoles, smart-home controllers, security cameras, smart doorbells, two or three adults on video calls from different rooms, and a growing list of connected appliances. A new-build apartment block multiplies that by every unit, plus common-area Wi-Fi, access control, lift comms and building management systems.

Excel provides the wired backbone those environments need. Cat6 and Cat6A copper for in-dwelling runs, OM4 fibre for building risers in MDUs, FTTx solutions for whole-development fibre-to-the-premises. 

For developers and housebuilders, Excel is specified at design stage to future-proof the property against the next decade of residential tech. Build-to-rent operators rely on the same range to standardise infrastructure across every unit in a development, so maintenance and upgrades run to one specification rather than unit-by-unit variation.
