If the network concerned doesn't connect to the PSTN in any way, shape or form, then you don't have to have a licenced cabler do anything, nor are you liable for squat in fines.
That's not so. The rule is that all "fixed installations" require a license.
When was the last time a home user got a fine for hooking up some cat5 for their (isolated from PSTN) home network? Would the gummit ever bother?
There's one in progress here in Adelaide at the moment. The idiot didn't maintain separation from 240VAC and one of Telstra's staff were injured seeing to the resulting phone fault. I've seen the photos of the work and shoddy doesn't begin to describe it. I think there's a lot of room for a "restricted" variant of the cabling license that takes only a few evenings to learn, talks mainly about the safety issues and is restricted to not-for-hire personnel installing UTP using modular systems in non-commercial buildings.
