At about 1147 people per square kilometre, Tecoma has properties where outdoor coverage to a pool or shed is part of the requirement. Tecoma is around 220 metres above sea level. Outdoor equipment here needs a proper rating and sealed cable entry.
At roughly 33 kilometres out, Tecoma has floor plans big enough that coverage has to be designed rather than assumed. Being part of Yarra Ranges, Tecoma follows the standard position on wireless cabling: registered cabler, compliant work, documented.
We work across Belgrave, Belgrave Heights and Ferny Creek on the same trip, and Tecoma sits in the middle of that loop. Tecoma is a suburb of about 1.8 square kilometres in Yarra Ranges, postcode 3160, with 2064 residents recorded in the 2021 census.
Tecoma sits inside a block we cover properly rather than occasionally. The neighbouring suburbs on that run are Belgrave, Belgrave Heights, Ferny Creek and Lysterfield. Tecoma is around 7.1 kilometres south-east of our workshop in Boronia, close enough that the van is stocked for the job before it leaves.
