Of
the three cabling scenarios currently available,
Tobron can help you
choose the method that will best suit your needs.
Zone Cabling
Zone
Cabling
Fiber optic cable (as opposed to copper in Cat 5) is run to each cluster and
connected to users with Cat 5. In the event of a reconfiguration the fiber
can be unplugged and relocated so the only Cat 5 cable that needs to be rethreaded
is that between the end of the fiber and each workstation.
Benefits:
• 50% savings on adds, moves,
changes
• Better data integrity because
the fiber optic cable ends much closer to each workstation
• With Herman Miller in-panel or under-worksurface
cabinet options you save on expensive real estate costs
Consolidation Point Cabling
Consolidation
Points
Requires one Category 5 cable per workstation. Cannot simply unplug and relocate.
In the event of a reconfiguration, each affected cable must be removed back to
the consolidation point and rethreaded.
Home Run Cabling
Home
Run Cabling
One Category 5 cable is run to each workstation. In the event of a reconfiguration,
each affected cable must be removed back to the entry point and rethreaded.
