What are the components of structured cabling?
A lot has been said recently about the evils of Structured Cabling and the threat it poses to the electric grid. In reality, however, structured cabling is one of the key technologies that helps protect the electric grid from potentially devastating outages. There are a number of misconceptions about structured cabling that need to be addressed. First and foremost, it's not low voltage wiring that causes problems on the electric grid, it's inadequate maintenance and installation of low voltage systems that eventually cause problems. Second, every layer of the electric grid is connected to each other. So if there is an issue with one part of the network, it can quickly cascade throughout the entire system. Structured cabling can help prevent this from happening by providing a reliable high-speed data transmission path for electric utilities. In short, structured cabling is a vital part of maintaining and protecting the electric grid – it's simply not as bad as some believe.
