Structured Cabling Services
Managing a plethora of wiring and cables can be challenging to ensure accurate placement. With the ensuing tangle, locating and correcting any problems that occur could prove difficult and costly for your business. A structured cabling system can solve these issues and save money on future repairs by providing an organized cabling infrastructure.
Structured cabling offers businesses the benefit of being adaptable and upgradable, saving time, money, and headaches as your company expands. With structured cabling in place, businesses are equipped to stay ahead of technological advancements with ease. Structured cabling networks can also improve your company’s image. Less tangled cable clutter makes for a cleaner and more professional appearance in any building.
Maintaining an organized, uncluttered aesthetic is essential for creating a positive impression on customers and visitors. This can be especially true if there are numerous cables running from your office to conference rooms or meeting spaces.
The Advantage Technology Structured Cabling Process
Structured cabling performed by experienced professionals with in-depth knowledge of BICSI standards.
Designing & Planning
The structured cabling planning process begins with engaging experienced professionals who adhere to Building Industry Consulting Service International (BICSI) standards. A comprehensive design is crafted to meet your specific business requirements, ensuring optimal support for your operations. Stakeholders’ input is gathered to align the objectives of all parties and ensure a shared vision.
Equipment & Hardware Selection
Careful consideration is given to selecting the appropriate cable type and size to accommodate future business growth. Factors such as indoor or outdoor installation are weighed in the decision-making process. Once the planning phase is complete, suitable equipment such as Ethernet switches, patch panels, and fiber optic cables are chosen based on budget and available space.
Cabling Installation
The installation includes determining the termination point, which can be a room or closet within your telecommunications enclosure for all cabling connections. Larger networks may necessitate centralized equipment rooms with environmental controls for added efficiency. Structured cabling aims to organize your network infrastructure for easy scalability and hardware upgrades as your business expands. This ensures compatibility with the latest technologies and facilitates seamless access for diverse users and applications. By following this meticulous planning process, your structured cabling system will provide a robust foundation for your network’s current and future needs.
