Ybor City and East Tampa represent two distinct dental market environments within close geographic proximity. Ybor City’s historic commercial district, with its brick buildings and 19th-century construction, presents significant IT infrastructure challenges for any professional practice: aged electrical systems, thick masonry walls that create wireless dead zones, and network cabling that may not have been touched since the space was last renovated. East Tampa’s residential and commercial corridors serve a predominantly working-class and Medicaid-participating patient population with dental practices that operate on different economics than the Westshore and South Tampa markets.
Ekim IT Solutions is the dental-exclusive IT provider serving dental practices in Ybor City, East Tampa, Tampa Heights, and the historic corridors east of downtown Tampa from our office at 600 N Westshore Blvd, Suite 701, Tampa, FL 33609.
Historic Ybor City commercial buildings frequently have network cabling that is either absent or too old to support modern dental imaging and cloud PMS requirements. A practice that moves into a Ybor City space and discovers on installation day that there is no usable Cat5e or Cat6 cabling in the walls faces significant unplanned construction cost.
Ybor City’s historic district buildings include structures built in the late 1800s and early 1900s that have been repurposed many times. Thick masonry walls limit wireless signal penetration, requiring more access points than a standard commercial space to achieve full coverage. Electrical systems may need assessment for server and network equipment loads. Network cabling runs through spaces where conduit routing is constrained by historic preservation requirements in some structures. Ekim IT Solutions has experience planning network infrastructure in historic commercial buildings and approaches each Ybor City buildout with a site-specific infrastructure plan.
