Structured Wiring

S
tructured Wiring is a whole building wiring system for communications, entertainment, security and control that works with the systems already in the building, anticipates technological advances and lays the groundwork for future technology and other enhancements.

Using Cat5e/Cat6/RG6 cables that can deliver performance you need today and in the future, cable runs(also called home runs) are installed from the distribtion panel to each location in the building where the signal is to distributed. Home runs are also installed to signal sources eg. Security camera, motion detectors, audio/video sources. Whether you are pre-wiring your new building, remodel wiring or a working on a do it yourself project, Cablecom has the right cables for your application

Structured wiring falls into the following six sub-systems.

Entrance Facilities is where the building interfaces with the outside world.
Equipment Rooms host equipment which serves the users inside the building.
Telecommunications Rooms are where various telecommunications and data equipment resides, connecting the backbone and horizontal cabling sub-systems.
Backbone Cabling as the name suggests carries the signals between the entrance facilities, equipment rooms and telecommunications rooms.
Horizontal Cabling is the wiring from telecommunications rooms to the individual outlets on the floor.
Work-Area Components connect end-user equipment to the outlets of the horizontal cabling system.

tructured cabling design and installation is governed by a set of standards that determine how to wire a data center, office or apartment building for data voice communications, using Category 5 or Category 6 cable and modular sockets. These standards define how to lay the cabling in a star formation, such that all outlets terminate at a central patch panel (which is normally 19 inch rack-mounted), from where it can be determined exactly how these connection will be used. Each outlet can be 'patched' into a data network switch (normally also rack mounted alongside), or patched into a 'telecoms patch panel' which forms a bridge into a private branch exchange (PBX) telephone system, thus making the connection a voice port.
