Structured Wiring telecommunications relocation

Design of structured wiring systems has been a major service provided by the #1 Computer Solutions for several years. Structured wiring consists of distribution and riser cabling for voice, data, and video systems. Typical media consists of fiber optic cable, twisted pair cable, and coaxial cable. Sound engineering for structured wiring systems also must include the pathways and spaces (i.e., raceways and wiring closets) necessary to deliver the cables to the outlets. All designs are completed using the guidance of widely accepted EIA/TIA standards 568, 569, 606, and 607 as well as the BICSI (Building Industry Consulting Service International) Telecommunications Design Manual standards. An especially challenging aspect of completing designs in campus environments is the necessity to adhere to these standards while designing systems to be installed in existing buildings, many of which are not easily adaptable to standards which are generally intended for cabling of new buildings.
