The planning phase is the time to ensure that a structured cabling system will provide flexibility and reliability

Whether it’s voice, data, video, security or the building management system, information is increasingly critical to the productivity of building occupants and to the performance of the building itself. But the quality of that information flow can be no better than the conduit carrying it — the cabling system.

A structured cabling system is designed to ensure that information flows smoothly over the cabling network. It includes a set of transmission products applied with engineering design rules that allow the user to apply voice, data and signals in a manner that maximizes data rates. The structured cabling system is the foundation of a successful intelligent building network and the basic investment on which all other network equipment depends.
