THE CHALLENGE

A national big box retailer was relocating and reconfiguring self-checkout banks across 100+, YTD, stores as part of a store-remodel initiative — moving lane positions, adding units, and integrating new POS terminals, card readers, and overhead IPTV cameras and displays. Every site had to stay open and operating during the transition, with a hard requirement that no lane be down for more than a single overnight window and zero impact to store opening the next morning.

NET'S SOLUTION

NET deployed trained technician teams to run the full physical-layer scope for each relocation: data drops for POS terminals and card readers, VOIP cabling for lane phones and help-call stations, and Cat 5e runs for the overhead IPTV cameras and signage feeding live promotions and wait-time displays. Each store followed a standardized rollout playbook, with pre-staged materials, site-specific pull plans, and off-hours scheduling built around each store's own operating calendar.

  • Data, VOIP, and IPTV cabling moved and re-terminated for every relocated lane, tested and certified before store open
  • Device disconnect/reconnect and mounting coordinated with the retailer's POS and AV vendors on a single unified schedule
  • All work performed overnight or during low-traffic windows — no lane closures during business hours
  • One nationwide point of contact across all 100+ stores, from scheduling through final walkthrough sign-off

Data

New and relocated Cat 5e drops for every POS terminal, card reader, and self-checkout controller, tested and certified to spec.

VOIP

Lane phone and help-call station cabling re-run and re-terminated to match each store's updated lane layout.

IPTV

Coax and IP runs for overhead displays powering live promotions, wait-time boards, and self-checkout signage.

1,000+ lanes moved. 100+ stores. Zero missed openings.

The Result

Every relocation was completed on schedule with no disruption to store hours. The retailer now has a single low-voltage partner it can call on for future remodels, expansions, and self-checkout refreshes — with consistent quality and documentation across every location, coast to coast.
