5 Things you should oversee to get rid of the Spaghetti Tangles at Office

Last week, while browsing internet, just stumbled upon an image of the largest disaster recovery center in the US, located in Houston, Texas. A young woman showed working on her laptop, and in front of her there was a large number of network cables hanging from the wall just like spaghetti noodles. It looked extremely untidy and messy. Hats off to the young lady as she was still able to focus on her work, which could have been difficult for others.
Network Cabling for voice and data communication can be cumbersome, unless you get a professional hand to take care of it. Such network is used for establishing connectivity with various network devices such as desktop/laptop, printers, scanners etc. in an organization. There are different types of high-quality Network Cables available, such as Cat 5, Cat 5e, Cat 6 Cabling and many others. If you have a business in Calgary, there are some leading cables installing companies available.
The following factors are important to have a tidy and efficient network cabling at your office:
  1. Use Category 5 or 6 cables made of high-quality solid copper wires.
  2. These cables need to be used as per size, requirement of voice/data transmission and complexities of the network in an organization. It will save the cost of unnecessary cable length and after the installation the office looks clean and tidy.
  3. Cat 5, 5e or 6 cables must have equally high-quality equipment such as patch panels, sockets and fly-leads to provide a true Category 5 or 6 connectivity.
  4. Getting a proper certified test results post installation is very important. If any defect remains at the time of installation, the cost of fixing the technical glitch could be significantly high.
  5. Make sure that a single cable is used for both voice and data. Separate cabling is not required for this purpose since it increases the complexity of maintenance, cost and makes the office space look messy.

So, you need not rush while selecting the most suitable network cabling service provider for your business. Just carry an extensive research and select a reliable service provider that will take complete responsibility of the end-to-end installation process.
