  1. Do not Miss These Things While  Installing Ethernet Cables    Ethernet cable plays one of the major roles in the evolution of                         technology, industrial area, manufacturing processes, and             more.  And if you are looking to convert your home, workplace,                     production unit, etc. into technologically advanced places               then installing an ethernet cable network would be the perfect                     decision.  Here’s why:    IoT And Ethernet Cables  IoT aka the internet of things is not a newborn concept. IoT’s                         concept is to introduce internet connectivity in our everyday                   1​​

  2. life. Having internet in everyday objects will allow them to                     send and receive the data. And when you have a properly                       installed ethernet cable in your system, it reduces downtime                   and renders the constant flow of data. This cable network                     connects your data systems and other devices including                 routers, modems, adapters or anything which needs internet                 in your place.    So, if you are planning to install Ethernet cables, here are                       some of the points you don’t want to miss:  Planning  After identifying a central location where all of your installed                     cables will end, you should start planning your ​ethernet cable installation. It is important that the central location of your                                         cable installation should be large in size to accommodate your                     current network as well as future expansion.  Understand that the cable you choose should be able to face                       any harsh environments such as UV light, abrasion, oil,                   2​

  3. chemicals, extreme temperatures, etc. Hence choosing the               right type of cables is necessary.  Deciding The Type  After completing the planning, you can go straight choosing                   the cables for your industry. Here are the types of cables you                         can consider.    PROFINET ​– Made using foil and brain shielding, this type of cable protects signals from the noise expected in plant floors.                          CAT6 – One of the major ​benefits of CAT6 cables is that they are backward compatible with all the previous CAT cables.                                             Plus, they have higher gauge wires and are capable of running                       in longer lengths. They support up to 10 Gbps and 250 MHz                         bandwidth.    CAT6A – They fulfills all the missing features of Cat 6 cables.                         Their performance is up to 500Mhz and can accommodate                   distances up to 100 meters.  3​

  4.   CAT7A – They supports 10-Gigabit Ethernet, up to 1000Mhz                   frequencies. You can use these cables in place of fiber optic                       cabling.    To build a proper ethernet cable network, you will need to buy                         bulk ethernet cables. As your network will require long lengths                     of cables, you will have to invest in ​bulk ethernet cables​.    After choosing the right type of cable, you need to keep these                         do’s and don’ts in mind.  Do’s:  Cross The Power Cable At 90º Angle  If you have to cross your data network cabling, make sure you                         keep them at the 90º angle in order to avoid interface.      4​

  5.   Use Different Color Schemes    You can easily separate them by using different color schemes.                     Yes, while you have to check, repair or replace certain types of                         cables, using different color schemes helps you recognize the                   right cable.    Label Them  The most important thing for your cable system management:                   Labeling. Make sure to label your cables after asking these                     questions:  ● Which location is the cable intended for?  ● How are the cables terminated?  ● What’s the cable’s purpose: Ethernet or Jack?        5​

  6. Choose An Effective Wire Management System  There are numerous types of devices available to manage your                     systems. Use the safe and effective wire bundling device to                     organize cabling between racks.  ● Create a layout of cable locations that serve as a quick                       and instant reference to locate cable for repair and                   replacement.  ● Keep space between your wires in a patch panel  ● Dress cables without cable-crossing or diving  Consider Connectorized Cable  When you buy pre-connectorized cables, it becomes easier for                   the plug-and-play installation. It would also provide the                 assembly required.  Don’ts:  Run Cables At Unsafe Locations  There may be instances when you would need the cables to                       run off the wall or ceiling type surfaces. One of the ​important things to keep in mind is that ethernet cables should not touch                                                 6​

  7. the ceiling tiles. Also, do not run the cable over the electrical                         conductor, water channels or such elements which are unsafe.  Do Not Keep Them Tight  Keeping them in a tight bundle with so many cables together                       may negatively impact the quality of cables. They become                   difficult to troubleshoot when required.    Never “Over Cable” Your Racks  Exceeding the amount of cables can cause hazards because of                     the overheating issue. So, make sure not to have too many                       cables on your racks as their temperature needs to be cool.  Avoid The Terminations Exposure  If you leave the wires exposed by terminations, you run a risk                         of wire damage inside the termination and can break the                     inside plug.    7​

  8. Most Importantly: Prepare The Data Systems For The                 Future  In the world of the Internet of Things, you are capable of                         connecting anything where they communicate among each in                 an intelligent manner. It is important to reduce the downtime                     of your system for smarter and faster communications. That’s                   why it is important to begin your ethernet cable installation                     properly for a streamlined working system.    This   Blog   Is   Originally   Posted   here;   https://www.sfcable.com/blog/do-not-miss-while-installing -ethernet-cables/    If you found this blog post useful, here are some other Blogs                         that may be of interest.    Fiber Optic Cables Vs Ethernet Cables: What Is the Difference?  The Best High-Speed Networking Cable for your House  8​
