Structured Cabling

Structured cabling: the entire wiring system used to transmit data, video and voice information from office to office, or through an entire building is at the base of modern information networks and provides a platform upon which an overall information system strategy is built.

Structured cabling has become a key strategic element in the assets of any enterprise:
  • 100% of company data travels across cables at some stage.
  • Approximately 75% of network faults are cable related, due mostly to incorrect installation procedures.
  • Cabling may be perceived as a small percentage of the overall IT budget, but it plays a critical part in the performance of the system. Under-investment can lead to poor IT performance (e.g. slow data transfer and other network failures).
  • A standardized structured cabling system can reduce the overall cost of the network infrastructure.
  • Cabling solutions are the only assets that come with a 25 year warranty.
  • IP Convergence, video streaming and other multi-media applications are driving the need for a single high quality cabling solution, capable of supporting current and future applications.
