Cabling

by admin |July 5, 2017

No single investment in technology will last longer than your cabling system.

Today’s businesses require advanced information technology to maintain a competitive advantage. As technology continues to evolve, the corporate network must support voice, data, video and multimedia applications. The growing size of networks and the introduction of higher-speed access methods create an overwhelming need for reliable, manageable cabling systems. Careful planning will prevent congestion that can dramatically diminish your network performance.

Icon Group can design and work with cabling systems, which may include several independent cabling solutions of different media types. We are experienced with all copper cabling including coax, Cat 3, 5, and 6, fiber optic, and many other low-voltage cabling for audio, security, and access control systems. Ultimately, your network’s specific requirements will determine the appropriate cabling choices for your information system.

  • Horizontal and Backbone Cabling Pathways Systems – these systems consist of structures such as cable trays and j-hooks to conceal, protect, support and provide access to your cabling infrastructure.
  • Backbone Distribution Systems – these systems consist of fiber and copper cabling and provide connections between your equipment rooms (ER’s), telecommunications rooms (TR’s) and telecommunications service entrance facilities. We can install these systems within your buildings and in your campus environment.
  • Horizontal Cabling Systems – these systems consist of category 3, category 5e, category 6, fiber optic cabling and termination products installed between the telecommunications rooms (TR’s) and the work areas.
  • Telecommunications and Equipment Rooms – these rooms provide connections between your Backbone and Horizontal systems and connections to your network and telephone equipment.
  • Fire Stopping – we install fire stopping to reestablish the integrity of fire-rated structures when cable, cable trays, cable sleeves, conduit and inner ducts penetrate these barriers.
  • Grounding and Bonding Systems – these systems consist of bonding and grounding specifically for telecommunications systems between telecommunications rooms, and for the components within telecommunications rooms.
  • Request for Proposal (RFP) Services – design and develop an RFP for your cabling system
  • Assistance with developing budgets and designs for voice, data, and video projects.
  • Audit of existing data, voice, and video cable infrastructure
  • Drawings of equipment rack layouts and wall field designs
