Did you happen to see a recent article posted by Cabling Installation and Maintenance entitled “3 intriguing cable spaghetti ‘before and after’ scenarios”? (If you haven’t, here it is)
After seeing CI & M’s article, we started thinking about some of our own cabinet nightmares and how we were able to improve the look and functionality. Take a look at our before and after photos — the “before” shot is the front of a cabinet without a proper cable management system in place. The “after” shot was achieved simply by adding our 25 pair connectivity on the back of the rack with proper cable management! What do you think?!
The Before…
And the after…
Advantages of our 25 pair solution:
- Reduced install costs by 20% +
- Reduced install time by 75%
- Switch upgrades are faster and easier
- Less cables to manage between racks, easier management
- Easier to track cables between racks
- Mac work can be handled by onsite staff
- Less Mess and Cleanup
- Better Cable management
- Re-useable Cables
- Throughput Guarantees, Gigabit Ethernet Guarantee
- Alien Crosstalk (ANEXT) Mitigation
- 35% reduction in OD of cable bundles
- Smaller bundles mean less blocking of cooling air flow, reducing power and cooling costs.
- 20 % reduction of cable weight on raised floor
So you tell us…
