CableFi vs Hamina

Hamina is a modern Wi-Fi design and survey platform. CableFi does NOT perform Wi-Fi surveys — it manages the survey job, deliverables, invoicing, and follow-through. CableFi's own Wi-Fi survey engineering team uses Hamina.

The verdict

You need both. CableFi is intentionally not a Wi-Fi survey tool.

Choose CableFi if

Cabling and LV contractors who sell Wi-Fi surveys as a job and need to manage estimates, projects, and deliverables.

Choose Hamina if

Wireless engineers performing predictive, active, passive, and post-deployment surveys.

CableFi, on screen

AP drops on the plan, then the job.

Place AP drops and home each one to its IDF; the RF survey itself stays in your survey tool, or ours.

See PathFinder

PathFinder on a sample office floor: each access point takes two CAT6A numbers from SW-01 in IDF-1, both routed along the corridor tray.
