Home Networking Solutions.
Stay Connected. Work Smarter.

At Integrated Powerhouse, we exclusively supply and install Ubiquiti UniFi — the world's leading enterprise-grade networking ecosystem. The UniFi platform provides everything you need in one unified system: UniFi Access Points — delivering carrier-grade Wi-Fi 6 and Wi-Fi 7 wireless coverage with seamless roaming for homes and businesses of any size; UniFi Switches — offering managed Layer 2 and Layer 3 PoE switches that power access points, cameras, and other devices over a single cable; UniFi Gateways — providing enterprise-class routing, firewall security, VLAN segmentation, and multi-WAN failover for uninterrupted connectivity across the Gold Coast and Northern NSW; and UniFi Protect — the integrated NVR camera system for security surveillance, all managed from the same UniFi controller app. The entire UniFi ecosystem is managed through a single, intuitive interface — the UniFi Controller — giving you complete visibility and control over your entire network from any device, anywhere. We maintain direct partnerships to ensure our Gold Coast, Tweed Heads, and Northern NSW clients receive genuine Ubiquiti products with full Australian warranty support.

For large Gold Coast homes — particularly multi-storey properties in areas like Sovereign Islands, Hope Island, Mermaid Beach, and Broadbeach Waters — we recommend a wired-backhaul UniFi access point system using Ubiquiti UniFi wireless access points and a UniFi Cloud Gateway or Dream Machine controller. Unlike consumer-grade mesh systems, UniFi's enterprise-grade APs handle dozens of simultaneous devices without degradation, offer VLAN segmentation for guests and smart home devices, and provide seamless roaming as you move throughout the property. For homes in Northern NSW and Tweed Heads where properties often span acreage, we deploy UniFi Gateways with multi-WAN failover across multiple internet connections (NBN, 4G/5G, and Starlink), ensuring the network stays online even during NBN outages — all managed and monitored from the same UniFi controller. Each installation begins with a comprehensive Wi-Fi site survey to map signal strength, identify interference sources, and determine the optimal UniFi access point placement tailored to your specific floor plan and construction materials.

Yes — we regularly carry out network installations across Northern NSW, from Tweed Heads and Kingscliff down through Byron Bay, Lennox Head, and Ballina. Our Northern NSW clients benefit from the same enterprise-grade Ubiquiti UniFi networking solutions we deliver on the Gold Coast, including structured Cat6A cabling, UniFi wireless access point networks, UniFi Gateways with multi-WAN failover for regional internet redundancy, and fully documented rack builds. We understand the unique challenges of networking in Northern NSW — including NBN fixed wireless limitations in rural pockets, coastal corrosion considerations for outdoor equipment, and the need for robust lightning protection on exposed properties. Whether you're building a new home in Casuarina, renovating a beach house in Byron Bay, or fitting out a commercial space in Tweed Heads, our team handles the full UniFi project from design through to commissioning and handover.

Absolutely — new home builds are where we deliver the most value. By engaging Integrated Powerhouse during the pre-wire phase of construction, we design and install a structured cabling backbone that future-proofs your Gold Coast property for decades. Our process includes: an initial consultation to map every network endpoint (access points, TVs, cameras, doorbell, home office, gaming areas, outdoor entertaining zones), a detailed cabling schedule coordinated with your builder and electrician, Cat6A cable runs terminated to a centralised network rack, testing and certification of every run, and final installation and configuration of the complete Ubiquiti UniFi ecosystem (UniFi access points, UniFi managed PoE switches, UniFi security gateways, and UniFi Protect NVR cameras). We've worked on new builds in every major Gold Coast development corridor — from Pimpama and Coomera through to Robina, Burleigh Heads, and Palm Beach — as well as custom architectural homes in Tweed Heads and throughout Northern NSW.

While the underlying technology is similar, home networks and commercial networks differ significantly in design philosophy, hardware selection, and management requirements. A home network on the Gold Coast typically prioritises seamless Wi-Fi coverage, streaming performance, smart home integration (such as Savant), and guest access — all packaged in a system that runs quietly and invisibly within a dedicated equipment rack. A commercial network — such as those we deploy for offices, retail spaces, and hospitality venues in Surfers Paradise, Broadbeach, and Tweed Heads — must support higher device counts, VLAN-separated networks for staff vs. guests vs. POS systems, advanced firewall and security policies, VPN remote access for employees, and often compliance with PCI-DSS or other regulatory frameworks. At Integrated Powerhouse, we deliver both — using the complete Ubiquiti UniFi ecosystem but tailoring the architecture, redundancy, and management layer to your specific use case — all within the single UniFi controller. Many of our clients with home-based businesses in Northern NSW benefit from a hybrid approach that combines residential convenience with commercial-grade security and reliability.

Yes — network integration with Savant smart home systems is one of our core specialities. A high-performance Savant system is only as good as the network it runs on, and we ensure that foundation is rock-solid. We configure VLANs to isolate Savant controllers, audio/video endpoints, lighting processors, and user-facing devices onto their own network segments — preventing broadcast storms and ensuring low-latency communication between Savant components. We deploy UniFi managed switches with QoS prioritisation for real-time AV traffic, UniFi Gateways for reliable remote access and system monitoring, and enterprise-grade UniFi wireless that supports seamless in-wall iPad and touch panel roaming throughout your Gold Coast or Northern NSW property. Our team works directly with your Savant programmer to ensure the network topology, IP addressing scheme, and firewall rules align perfectly with the automation system's requirements, resulting in a responsive, trouble-free smart home experience from Tweed Heads to Byron Bay — all managed within the UniFi controller.

Yes — we offer comprehensive ongoing network support and remote monitoring for clients across the Gold Coast, Tweed Heads, and Northern NSW. Our support plans include: 24/7 remote network health monitoring with automated alerts for device outages, bandwidth saturation, or security events; proactive firmware updates for all routers, switches, and access points; quarterly performance reports with recommendations for optimisation; priority onsite support with guaranteed response times for critical issues; and a dedicated support line for troubleshooting connectivity or performance problems. For commercial clients in Surfers Paradise, Broadbeach, and the Tweed Heads business district, we also offer managed service agreements with SLA-backed response times, regular onsite health checks, and change management documentation. Whether you need peace of mind for your family's home network in Burleigh Heads or guaranteed uptime for your business in Northern NSW, our support plans are tailored to your operational requirements.

We provide professional IT networking services across the entire Gold Coast region and into Northern NSW. Our core service areas include: Northern Gold Coast — Hope Island, Sanctuary Cove, Helensvale, Runaway Bay, Paradise Point, Coomera, Pimpama, and Ormeau; Central Gold Coast — Southport, Surfers Paradise, Broadbeach, Mermaid Beach, Mermaid Waters, Bundall, Benowa, and Ashmore; Southern Gold Coast — Burleigh Heads, Palm Beach, Currumbin, Tugun, Coolangatta, Elanora, and Robina; plus hinterland areas including Mudgeeraba, Tallai, Bonogin, and Tallebudgera Valley. Across the border, we regularly service Tweed Heads, Coolangatta-Tweed, Kingscliff, Casuarina, Cabarita Beach, Pottsville, and further south into Byron Bay, Lennox Head, and Ballina in Northern NSW. No matter where your property is located — from a canal-front home in Mermaid Waters to a rural acreage in the Tweed Valley — our team will come to site for the initial WiFi survey, installation, and ongoing support.
