Cabling: the silent hero in every business

WIRELESS technology is something that we can often take for granted. Phones, laptops, tablets, smart watches… the list goes on.

Well, have you ever actually considered that none of these devices are truly wireless? It’s true, all of the wireless technology that we use in our daily lives requires a silent hero to function. Cabling!

When sitting on a train, plane or tube we can use 3G and 4G networks. Have you ever considered how much cabling sits behind those networks to enable you to do that? Cables are everywhere. They keep our devices running, connect us to wifi networks, and even keep our mode of transport on the right route. When travelling and working, there are thousands of cables keep us safe on our journey. Just because we can’t see them, doesn’t mean they aren’t there.

Today, people have very high expectations when it comes to their technology, whether it is in their hand or on their desk. Productivity can be difficult with slow wireless, sluggish systems and machines that buffer at everything. And the truth is, businesses can spend as much money as they want on the latest and greatest tech, but if your cabling is poor, you will experience tech problems, which will make it harder for you to get the most out of your top-notch hardware.

Think about wireless access points within your office. Each point has to be successfully cabled for it to work. If the cabling is poor, your wireless service will seriously suffer.

Then we get to the engine rooms… the server room or data centre. Without these rooms, we wouldn’t be able to function and without the correct cabling, neither would they. These areas of your business are the last place you want to experience technical problems. Quality cabling will help you avoid disasters, by doing the right job.

Yes, there is a theme in this article. If you don’t get your cabling right, everything else suffers.
