Cable Installation Procedure

The cable installation procedure varies depending on a few different factors. The summary below covers standard fees, equipment options, and what is included.

Basic outside installation

$99.95 Covers standard outside aerial installation to the demarcation point (normally the PG&E power meter box), up to 150 ft of cabling.

SNC offers a $30.00 discount on the outside installation if you purchase a modem or gateway from SNC.

SNC sells cable modems for $99.95, high-performance Wi-Fi gateways for $200, and Wi-Fi mesh routers for $139.95 per router (larger homes).

Due to supply chain issues, prices and models may change without notice.

Outlets & indoor run lengths

The standard installation includes wiring to one basic outlet at no additional cost.

Cabling runs over fifty feet are considered a special installation and will incur an additional cost.

Each additional basic outlet, installed within 50 feet of the demarcation location, is $40.00 per outlet.

What basic indoor outlet installation includes

  • Wiring from the demarcation point to the modem, with a distance of no greater than 50 ft.
  • Drilling holes in walls or floors as needed to bring cabling into the residence.
  • Installing appropriate grommets or plates, connecting and activating the modem, and connecting limited additional components (router, Wi-Fi devices).
