Location: Chili, Monroe County, New York
Facility: Roberts Wesleyan University – Basketball Court
Project Overview
Our commercial electrical team completed the power, data, and fiber infrastructure installation for a new high-definition video scoreboard at Roberts Wesleyan University in Chili, NY. The project supported the upgrade of the basketball court’s digital display system inside the Redhawks athletic facility.
Modern athletic scoreboards require coordinated electrical distribution, low-voltage data pathways, and fiber connectivity to support video feeds, live scoring systems, broadcast integration, and sponsor content.
About the Roberts Redhawks
The Roberts Wesleyan Redhawks compete at the NCAA Division II level and are members of the East Coast Conference (ECC). The basketball program represents the university with a strong competitive presence and community support throughout Monroe County and Western New York.
Upgrading the scoreboard enhances the game-day experience for athletes, students, alumni, and fans while supporting media presentation and athletic recruiting efforts.
Scope of Work
- Installation of dedicated power circuits for video scoreboard system
- Structured cabling for control systems and data communication
- Fiber optic installation for high-bandwidth video transmission
- Equipment grounding and surge protection
- Coordination with scoreboard manufacturer and AV integrators
Careful planning ensured clean conduit routing, proper separation of power and data systems, and code-compliant installation within the athletic facility.
Technical Considerations
Video scoreboards require reliable and stable power supply combined with low-latency, high-speed data transmission. Fiber optic infrastructure supports:
- High-definition video display
- Live scoring updates
- Instant replay systems
- Advertising and sponsorship media
- Future expansion capabilities
All installations were completed in accordance with National Electrical Code (NEC) requirements and institutional safety standards.
Project Outcome
- Fully powered and connected HD video scoreboard
- Reliable fiber backbone for high-bandwidth transmission
- Clean, professional conduit and cable management
- Enhanced game-day experience for Roberts Redhawks basketball
Conclusion
This project demonstrates our expertise in commercial power distribution and structured cabling for athletic facilities. The new scoreboard infrastructure supports Roberts Wesleyan’s basketball program and provides a modern, high-performance display system for years to come.
