Rick Radonich, RCDD, Business Manager


Rick is one of the first people you’re likely to meet at Cal Coast

Telecom. As a Registered Communications Distribution Designer

(RCDD), Rick is able to help you design a complete structured

cabling system for almost any type of project including voice,

data, or video.


Friendly, sincere, and highly professional, Rick is all about quality.

As he puts it: “I don’t believe in cutting corners. If you pay

attention to the details, the results will always be more cost

effective. For us, it’s a matter of credibility. Our customers

depend on us to deliver a quality result.”


Rick also ensures that Cal Coast Telecom is up-to-date on the

newest products and vendors.


Since arriving at Cal Coast Telecom, Rick has designed voice

and data communications networks, including FICON, ESCON,

and gigabit Ethernet networks, and CATV head-end and

distribution systems.


With his background in electrical engineering, (not to mention

his years on a Navy nuclear submarine), Rick has a thorough

understanding of the electrical engineering industry, specs,

and requirements, including the issues surrounding

electro-magnetic interference and security. His work on

submarines provided him with a breadth of experience with

cabling, plant monitoring and control equipment, electrical

power generation, preventive and corrective maintenance,

and working in small spaces.


In addition to his RCDD certification, Rick holds a BS in

Control Systems Engineering.

cabling business in 1992. David also knows that it takes to motivate

technicians to maintain a strict adherence to his quality standards.


As Operations Manager, David is responsible for day-to-day

operations, supervising projects, quality control, value engineering,

safety meetings, and scheduling.


David’s 14 years of experience includes projects ranging from

cabling computer labs up to 250,000 sq. ft. with channel cables,

ESCON fiber optic, and power whips; building out telecommunications

rooms; managing one of the first Category 6 data center cabling

His BICSI certifications include:


* Telecommunications Project Management


* Telecommunications Distribution Systems Design

David's experience in the Marine Corps helped him attain the belief

that there is no job he can't do.
