Structured Cabling - Choose IEC

What is it?

Structured cabling refers to the standardized and organized approach of designing, installing, and managing a comprehensive cabling infrastructure within a building or campus environment. This infrastructure typically includes cables, connectors, distribution panels, and other hardware components that support various communication technologies, such as data, voice, video, and other multimedia services.

The structured cabling system provides a reliable and flexible framework for networking equipment. This allows for efficient connectivity between devices, regardless of their location within the facility. It follows industry standards and best practices to ensure interoperability, scalability, and ease of management. Ultimately supporting the current and future communication needs of an organization by doing so.

Low in Voltage

Low voltage cabling refers to the installation and management of cables that carry signals at a relatively low voltage level. These cables are commonly used for transmitting data, voice, video, and other communication signals within buildings or other structured environments. We design Low voltage cabling systems to operate safely and efficiently, adhering to industry standards and regulations to minimize the risk of electrical hazards.

Examples of low voltage cabling applications include structured cabling for networking, telephone systems, audio/visual equipment, security cameras, access control systems, and environmental controls. We provide a full suite of services for all your structured cabling needs.

We handle it all

Twisted Pair Cable:
- Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP): UTP cables are the most common type of network cables. They consist of twisted pairs of insulated copper wires and are widely used for Ethernet connections, such as Cat5e, Cat6, and Cat6a cables. UTP cables are affordable, easy to install, and suitable for short to medium-length connections.
- Shielded Twisted Pair (STP): STP cables are similar to UTP cables but have an additional shielding layer to protect against electromagnetic interference (EMI). They are often used in environments with high interference, such as industrial settings.
Coaxial Cable:
- Coaxial cables consist of a central conductor, surrounded by an insulating layer, a metallic shield, and an outer insulating layer. They are commonly used for cable television (CATV) and broadband internet connections. Coaxial cables have high bandwidth capabilities and are suitable for longer-distance transmissions.
Fiber Optic Cable:
- Fiber optic cables use light signals to transmit data instead of electrical signals. They consist of a core made of glass or plastic fibers surrounded by cladding material and an outer protective layer. Fiber optic cables offer high-speed, high-bandwidth connectivity and are immune to electromagnetic interference. They are commonly used in long-distance and high-demand applications, such as telecommunications networks, data centers, and high-speed internet connections.
Ethernet Cable:
- Ethernet cables are a broad category that includes various types of cables used for Ethernet networking. This includes both twisted pair and fiber optic cables. Ethernet cables are standardized under the IEEE 802.3 protocol and are widely used for local area network (LAN) connections.
