Structured Cabling Supports a Multi-Product, Multi-Vendor Atmosphere
The cables behind the walls of your office, under the floors, and within the ceilings are by far the least glamorous part of I.T. Mostly considered an essential utility, you need cabling and conduits that support low-voltage to help minimize cost.
The need for a low-voltage infrastructure that crucial in running high-performance businesses. It includes both wired and wireless components. Your Structure Cabling components should support high transmission speed and all the bandwidth requirements within the organization.
At House of I.T., we practice all the standard prescribed codes within an organization. With our design and management, you can implement the most efficient physical infrastructure within your organization. If you wonder which standard describes structured cabling, it is the Commercial Building Wiring Standard.
What is a Structured Cabling System?
Why is it Necessary?
The Structured Cabling Systems consist of the complete cabling and associated hardware within your office space. With its help, you can optimize a more comprehensive infrastructure for your telecommunication. Not only does it allow a broader range of use, but it also helps in faster data transmission throughout your entire computer network.
Without proper and faster connectivity, your organization's workflow can be jeopardized. Consider the cabling as the backbone upon which the productivity of your entire organization depends.
Don't get left behind. With House of I.T., you have 15 years of experience and expertise by your side. Let our experts deliver the most appropriate and standardized structured network cabling system. Enjoy the highest speed at the lowest-cost network infrastructure available today with these types of network cables.
Providing the IT Services Your Business Needs to be Successful
Did you know many companies are losing money because they are using an IT system that isn’t designed for their business specifically? Not only do you lose productivity, but you could also be losing across the board ranging from customer relations to process efficiencies. Let us help you get the right network that supports your business growth instead of hindering it.
What is Cabling Used for?
You ever wondered how information is connected and transferred throughout an organization? Cabling is the networking process that allows it. It can be between computers, routers, networks, storage, and even switches. These cables are set up through internet cable installation and link your systems to the internet for faster connectivity.
That is also the single system that interconnects your PCs, phones, and other necessary devices for your business. If you seek a reliable solution that also caters to a whole range of communication requirements, you need structured cabling.
As a result, you can only run the cables to and from the equipment. It is not possible for large enterprises, where there are tons of equipment across the floor. On the other hand, if you need to connect different hardware to your primary data center, Structured Cabling can offer a more extensive facility.
The ANSI/TIA-568-C.0 (Generic Telecommunications Cabling for Customer Premises) standard is maintained for generic infrastructure. The ANSI/TIA-568-C.1 (Commercial Building Telecommunications Cabling Standard) is maintained for commercial building infrastructure.
That is the part of your Structured System cabling, where the telecom company's wiring ends, and your company's wiring begins. You can connect the provider's cabling to your private cabling using the demarcation points, connecting hardware, or any other equipment. All of these are available in entrance facilities.
Having it environmentally controlled means you can modify and adapt the features to your physical workplace to enhance business effectiveness. It also consists of the main cross-connect (MC), intermediate cross-connects (IC), and horizontal cross-connects (HC).
Similarly, a telecommunications enclosure (TE) acts as a secondary telecommunications room (TR) in some instances. You can say that the TE can work as a more miniature TR that helps consolidate, distribute, and offer a point of network cable termination nearby. This way, you can establish the final link to your desktop via a fiber, UTP cable, or even wireless connection.
Horizontal cabling is also considered as cabling subsystem 1. Cabling subsystem 2 is the backbone cabling between the horizontal and intermediate cross-connect. There is a cabling subsystem 3 that connects between an intermediate cross-connect and the main cross-connect.
The horizontal cabling subsystem 1 stretches from your primary work area's telecommunication information outlet to the TR or TE. It comprises a horizontal cable, some mechanical terminations, patch cords, and jumpers.
Now, when planning horizontal cabling, what is the maximum allowable distance that can be used? Now ideally, the answer is 76 meters or 250 feet. That is why your telecommunication room needs to be on the same floor as the work area.
What does backbone cabling consist of?
The components, which the backbone cabling system helps interconnect, include the entrance facilities, the equipment rooms, the access provider (AP) spaces, and the telecommunications rooms.
Backbone cables
Intermediate connects
Main cross-connects
Mechanical network cable termination
Patch cords or jumpers There are three types of backbone cabling:
Coaxial
Twisted pair (shielded or unshielded)
Fiber optic
