Cabling Solutions

The world has become one big global village due to the advancements in technology. What was once far away can now be reached within seconds through various means of technology! Distance isn’t a factor now in the field of communication services.

Everything and everyone is now connected with a technology oriented ecosystem. Wireless communication between devices made it possible for the development from WiFi to Wireless Charging.

But the irony is that these advancements were all possible using wired technologies. Even now fiber optic solutions dominate among the fastest mode of communications available.

The connection between servers, microprocessors and various hardware in a supercomputer are still made by the use of wires. The flexibility and efficiency of wires are unparalleled even though they tend to make a mess at your workstation. This is where a cabling solution comes into existence. The sheer performance of a wired system comes with the mundane task of organizing the cables properly.

If the cable management of your home PC looks unorganized, imagine what a super computer or server cluster with thousands of wires crisscrossing each other looks like!

The problem with wires, mainly copper or copper compounds is that over time the wires go brittle. So if you organize your cables in such a way that they are bent up and bunched together, chances are after some months when you try to reorganize them, bending them the other way causes internal fractures. More care should be taken while handling fiber cables as they are very costly to do repairs on.

Fiber optic internet and the future of cables

The task of a connectivity cable is simple, transfer information between at least two points.

And fiber optics is regarded as the future of cabled connections. Since fiber wires transmit information at almost the speed of light, they are astonishingly fast, and their capability in carrying different sets of information all in a single transition by varying wavelength makes them the prime carrier of information in modern times.

Fiber optics have the superior advantage over our existing metal cables. Internet browsing in HD quality or even 4K video streaming can be done without buffering in fiber optic internet connections. The massive bandwidth that fiber optics has made companies like Google to start their internet service. The future of an entirely fiber enabled connectivity isn’t far away.

The rise of cloud telephony companies

It has come to a point where the conventional phone services can’t keep up with the current business requirements. The introduction of cloud telephony opened a whole new spectrum of possibilities for small businesses and big businesses alike.

How cloud telephony works differently from that of conventional methods is that cloud telephony uses VoIP feature to transmit calls between two devices. This means that the use of branch exchanges is avoided altogether, eliminating the need for all conventional telephone equipment like private branch exchange.

Cloud telephony system provides another benefit of pay as per use policy which gives significant cost savings over the conventional connections we are used to. This cost reduction is mainly owing to almost zero hardware requirements of the cloud telephony system.

In addition to the reduced cost savings, the broad network access also helps cloud telephony to be opted by many large enterprises. The hassle-free registration process that only comprises of a registration process gives the users a new found freedom from the shackles of conventional telephony systems.

The cloud telephony service is a relatively new technological advancement in the communication field. With such a good reception from companies and individuals alike, there’s no doubt that cloud telephony is here to stay. The only restrictions faced by cloud telephony services is the restrictions placed by the different countries.

Structured network cabling

When catering to the connectivity of large servers or telecommunication networks, a significant amount of cabling is needed for effective transmission of signals.

An effective cabling structure is formed when the cable managed in such a way that there are minimal losses due to attenuation or cable resistance. Attenuation and cable resistance can be defined as a function of a cable's length. So when a cable's length increases the signal is subjected to more resistive forces.  

This is where the importance of structural network cabling is evident. In structured cabling networks, the cabling is done in an organized manner.

One must keep in mind that structured network cabling handles thousands of cables. Structured cabling infrastructure is opted by almost all of the MNCs to handle their network operations. Some companies have expertise in managing cable networking.
