In the normal course of business operations for most companies, technology and communication are always present and by that, we mean computers, laptops, telephone lines, and many more with each cable connected to a cabling system.
Today, a lot of companies are taking a DIY approach to their network cabling to avoid costs. If you’re one of them and you’re reading this, you’d probably need to wake up from reality that you’re losing more than you think with a (un)structured and unorganized cabling system.
This photo speaks for itself and this nightmare wouldn’t be far from happening with yours too. Maybe not now but in 5-6 years and the common causes may be:
But if we look further into details, there are many outcomes that an unstructured cabling system could also cause, and here are some of them:
1. System Downtime
Take the picture above as an example. One thing you probably didn’t notice is that the cables are unlabeled and that’s just like waiting for a system downtime to happen at any time. If you don’t know what connects where within your network, troubleshooting would take too long to resolve and who knows what’s going to happen in that duration? System downtimes are considered a loss depending on how long it lasts so this alone should be something worth considering.
2. Prone to fire and accidents
Jumbled and messy cable arrangements especially on the floor or just on your server are already a hazard. Anyone can cause accidents like tripping or even worse, could cause a fire in an instant. Plus, it doesn’t look visually pleasing. Chances are, if your network is messy, it will likely reflect on your performance too.
3. Data Impairment or Network Bottlenecks
Every business relies on data which is why Data center infrastructures and data center space are important factors in businesses. If data flow becomes impaired or stops, it could affect application performance especially with databases and other applications that could also cause them to crash. This is referred to as a Network Bottleneck that is often caused by poor network or fabric storage designs. Bottlenecks also cause other configuration issues like slow systems and slow internet which affect work and compromise operations and productivity even before you know it.
THE SOLUTION? Structured Cabling.
Structured Cabling is a type of infrastructure that provides and supports an organization to your business’s technology and also connects all the devices within the business premises. Considering today’s fast-paced age and the evolving technology, it’s extremely important to maintain the communication technology needs in order.
By having a structured cabling system, you are able to enjoy the following benefits:
Structured cabling makes work simple and easy to manage as it involves extremely organized and most effective methods to use in the workplace. It’s also a one-time investment that will surely help in the profitability of your company in the long run.
Structured Cabling provides a seamless communication network while transferring data across various computer systems. Its importance is often overlooked when it is, in fact, one of the most important networking tools that should be present in your workplace.
Structured cabling technology provides adaptability that can support high bandwidth and can be used in video conferencing and a high volume of calls with fewer disruptions in between. It also paves the way for lesser downtimes and promotes productivity by reducing the time for troubleshoots and resolving errors.
While some cabling systems are helpful for current business operations, other structured cabling systems are more catered for future and long-term use depending on the company’s preference. Selecting a structured cabling system for your company means that it should be capable enough to withstand and cater to changing business needs and while your company is looking to acquire and maintain customers, of course, your means of communication should come with it too as business opportunities and relationships are where it all takes place.
