Fibre Directly to Your Garage, Barn, Workshop, or Guest House

Wi-Fi from your home doesn't always reach detached buildings reliably. An Outbuilding Extension brings your WTC Fibre connection directly to another building on your property, giving you a strong, reliable connection where you need it.

How It Works

We run a dedicated fibre line from your home to your outbuilding, creating a reliable connection between the two buildings.

  • Zero Signal Loss: Unlike wireless repeaters that lose speed over distance and walls, dedicated fibre optics deliver your full residential bandwidth without drops.

  • Fully Managed Hardware: WTC supplies, configures, and manages the entire link—including active media converters, SFPs, optical wall plates, and an indoor Wi-Fi mesh unit (with a flexible $100 upfront option to switch to our Backyard Beacon weatherproof outdoor Wi-Fi, or combine both for comprehensive inside-and-out coverage).

  • One Connected Network: Roam seamlessly between your home and your outbuilding with the same Wi-Fi network name (SSID), password, and app controls.

Choose Your Outbuilding Extension Option

Every installation includes a standard recurring fee of $20.00/month, covering ongoing management, proactive monitoring, and software/hardware lifecycle updates for the pair of fibre media converters and your dedicated, high-speed Wi-Fi 6 indoor mesh unit.

Upfront installation pricing is based entirely on your property's existing pathways and physical terrain.

Frequently Asked Questions (F.A.Q.)

Who is eligible for the Outbuilding Extension?

Available exclusively to current or soon-to-be WTC customers in eligible Fibre service areas within Eastern Ontario (including Kingston, Westport, Perth, Wolfe Island, Yarker, and surrounding communities in Frontenac and Leeds & Grenville counties).

*Not currently available for wireless, DSL, or cable connections.

How does the "On-Site Ditch Witch" discount work?

Trenching equipment mobilization is one of the biggest costs of burying cable. If you add the Fibre Trace (Option 3) install while our crew is already at your property trenching your primary residential fibre drop, we waive the separate equipment mobilization fee. Your installation drops from $999 to just $499—saving you $500 instantly.

What is the difference between this and the Backyard Beacon?

  • Backyard Beacon: A high-power outdoor Wi-Fi access point mounted to your home's exterior that broadcasts wireless signal through open air up to 1.6 km. It is ideal for open yards, patios, and gardens.

  • Outbuilding Extension: A physical point-to-point fibre-optic cable run directly into a separate building (FTTH). It is required for structures with metal siding, foil insulation, or concrete walls where external Wi-Fi cannot penetrate.

What equipment does WTC supply & maintain?

  • Two professional-grade fibre media converters with SFPs (one in your home, one in the outbuilding).

  • All necessary optical patch cords and surface wall plates.

  • One managed Wi-Fi mesh unit (or outdoor Beacon unit if swapped).

  • All fibre cable pulled or trenched up to 200 metres (Option Tiers 2 and 3).

What happens if the run is longer than 200 metres?

Runs beyond 200m fall under Outbuilding Extension: Fibre Custom (Option 4). A WTC technician will perform a free site survey to calculate additional cable, conduit, or aerial hardware requirements and provide an exact quote before any work begins.
