Whether you’re setting up a new office or expanding an existing network, professional structured cabling services can help you build a reliable network.

Structured Cabling Services Explained 

Structured cabling—also referred to as network cabling—is the infrastructure that connects devices within and between buildings or campuses. It consists of everything needed to enable data exchange and communication, such as cables, connectors, panels, switches, routers, wireless access points, and more. Without it, devices cannot communicate with one another. This means everything from printing to accessing the internet relies on structured cabling.  

Common Structured Cabling Challenges 

There are plenty of structured cabling issues that can spell big trouble for your business. This includes: 

  • Cable Congestion: Inadequate cabling pathways and poor cable management can lead to cable congestion, which, in turn, can cause network performance issues and downtime.   
  • Connectivity Issues: Poorly connected or damaged connectors, splices, or cable runs can cause connectivity issues. 
  • Upgrading and Expanding Existing Cabling Infrastructure: As business needs change, structured cabling infrastructure may need to be upgraded or expanded.
