Introduction:

Structured network cabling to the uninitiated is a lot of wires and boxes that flash small lights on and off all day, every day. Structured cabling for an IT network, whether it is one office, or an entire office block of several storey's, or multiple sites linked together via a company's wide area network, is essential to future proof your company's' ongoing IT needs.

The structured and balanced network infrastructure is, to make an analogy to the human body, the veins and arteries that carry the data lifeblood of a company to the vital organs of servers, computers and printers.

Should the network break down, or indeed fail in one or two places, parts or all of the ‘body' served by the network could be severely damaged or put out of business completely.
Likewise a network needs to be secure and also have ‘future proofing' built in at the design and implementation stage.

And as well as being built securely and on a sound principle, the network infrastructure should strictly adhere to the ‘100 meter' rule with regard to placement of hardware switches, ...
... switch rooms and network peripherals.

Now if all of this information sounds daunting to the uninitiated, it is just ‘plain sailing', everyday ‘bread and butter' work for NCS, the #1 structured network cabling installation company in Canada.
