Infrastructure is composed of numerous components, and the cabling component is often overlooked by most users when it functions well. However, it immediately gets noticed when it fails or affects performance and efficiency.

As discussed in Part 1, zone cabling architecture is capable of supporting both existing and future solutions in smart offices. Part 2 will discuss Keeping Pace with Newer Technologies and Change Supported by Infrastructure.

In order to support the modern workforce’s demands, open floor plans and collaborative areas are now typical features of today’s offices. In addition, the trend to efficient and connected offices has led to the introduction of new technologies, and cabling infrastructure has had to evolve. The following discusses zone cabling architecture, which is capable of supporting both existing and future solutions in smart offices.

Playing an important role in airflow management (AFM) in a data center, cable management significantly influences the power usage effectiveness (PUE) of a data center. There are two chief factors that determine the relationship between cable management and PUE as discussed below.

As discussed in Part 1, the foundation of every modern company is solid IT infrastructure. However, many organizations use the break/fix model, rather than employing a sustained, consistent effort with structured cabling to future-proof their businesses. Part 2 will discuss the Benefits of Structured Cabling.

The foundation of every modern company is solid IT infrastructure. Being capable of managing and storing important and sensitive data allows a business to focus on growing its business and generating revenue. However, many organizations do not invest adequate resources to meet this end. It is not uncommon for some to use the break/fix model, rather than employing a sustained, consistent effort with structured cabling to future-proof their businesses.
