Best Practices for Server Room & Data Center Cable Management
The best practices of cable management provide more benefits than just organization. Properly managing the cables on a server rack will increase airflow efficiency and cooling effectiveness, improving system performance and allowing easier scalability and maintenance.

An Overview of Cat6a for Your Next Cable Installation
Introduced in 2009, Category 6a cable (Augmented Category 6) can support data transfer rates ranging up to 10Gbps at a bandwidth of 500MHz. Superior to the preceding cable categories, the increased performance of Cat6a can be attributed to the tighter and additional twists of its wires and thicker insulation for the significant reduction of crosstalk.

Use Smart Office Cabling to Increase Performance and Efficiency – Part 2
As discussed in Part 1, infrastructure is composed of numerous components with cabling often overlooked by the majority of users when it functions well. However, it immediately gets noticed when it is faulty and affects performance and efficiency. Part 2 will discuss Long-Term Growth and BYOD (Bring Your Own Device).
