Understanding BuildingConnect

This page answers the most common questions about BuildingConnect and how building-wide connectivity works in practice. It covers setup, operations, leasing, and user experience to help you understand how connectivity can be simpler, faster, and easier to manage.

Getting connected


Once the building is enabled, tenants can typically get online immediately without waiting for installations.

The building-wide setup is usually completed in around three months. After that, no further installs are needed for individual tenants.

In most cases, no. Connectivity is already available in the building, so tenants can use what is in place.

They can connect straight away using the existing setup, rather than organising a new installation.

Operations and management
