Data Cabling

Structured cabling systems provide connectivity within the data centre and with the outside world. They can be copper or fibre or more often a mixture of both. The choice of which standards are adopted will depend on the speeds required and distances involved. Our network specialists can advise on the best system for your particular application.

When designing a data centre we look at the whole picture, ensuring separation between power and data cables and incorporating diverse cable routes. We will also help design the overall structure of the network, for example determining the positions and numbers of network cabs within the data centre and also of any satellite comms rooms in larger buildings.

Our installation engineers are all fully qualified and all installation are certified and warranted by the cable manufacturer.

We have experience in the design and installation of:

• Category 5e/class D, category 6/class E, category 6A/class EA, category 7/class F, category 7A/class FA
• UTP, F/UTP, S/FTP, F/FTP
• Single and multi-mode fibre
• Intelligent Infrastructure Management (IIM)
• Voice-over-IP
• Horizontal and backbone structured cabling installations from a few dozen to hundreds of outlets

Increasing Density Whilst Reducing Power Consumption

In line with the desire of organisations to provide more performance in less space within their Data Centre environment, whilst meeting power consumption objectives, Future-Tech design the data centre environment using focused product sets that meet the design objectives of guaranteed high density performance, seamless migration and user flexibility at a reduced power level.

Compared to traditional cable solutions, Future-Tech’s high density solutions can provide many cost benefits, including:

• Up to 20% reduced floor space
• Between 10% and 20% less maintenance time
• Up to 5% lower power consumption
