How to Future-Proof Your Offices with Structured Data Cabling
Be Ready for Today’s and Tomorrow’s Communication Technology with the Right Infrastructure
Is it a wireless world? You might think so, with the rollout of 5G and the ubiquity of Wi-Fi almost anywhere to tether our many wireless devices to the internet. However, all that wireless capability highly depends on wired infrastructure. Wiring and cabling is still a vital underpinning for business communication, whether it’s for networking, video-conferencing, sound systems, microphones, business telephones, projectors, displays, digital signage, and much more.
A well-designed and architected data cabling installation is critical to supporting your operations. With just about every type of communication converging on digital formats, you should have a solution that will grow with your Henderson, NV operation.

Structured Data Cabling
What is structured data cabling? In simple terms, it is a method of organizing the wiring and cabling infrastructure for your systems so that you can add capacity when needed, optimize your data flows, and troubleshoot issues efficiently when they arise. A structured approach typically replaces a veritable rat’s nest of messy wires and cables with a neatly organized system with patch panels and clear connections to power and data trunk feeder lines.
Imagine your conference room systems. You may have multiple microphones or microphone arrays, built-in speakers with an audio distribution system, a projector and a flat panel display, a speakerphone, video cameras for conferencing, and more. If you layer in these systems over time without paying attention to cabling, it can take costly hours to troubleshoot something that stops working due to a connection issue.
Another excellent reason to use a structured data cabling approach is for adding capacity. Say you need to add more connected devices with higher bandwidth, like 4K video cameras for conferencing? With a structured system, it’s easy to patch in a higher speed interface to that area and let the devices that need it get access – much like a Thunderbolt high-speed hub can centralize and organize an interface from a modern laptop to a wide range of devices.
