data centre Structured Cabling

Data centre structured cabling systems provide connectivity within the data centre and with the outside world. They can be copper, fibre or often a mixture of both. Like all data centre cabling systems and solutions, selection should be based upon the requirements, drivers and constraints of your project. Structured cabling is the same and the choice of which cabling specification you adopt will depend on the speeds required and distances involved.

About Data Centre Structured Cabling

Our network specialists can advise on the best structured data centre cabling 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 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 fully qualified and all installations are certified and warranted by the cable manufacturer.
