In Ethernet networks, the speed of the network is dictated by the speed of the slowest connection. That means one bad cable run (or termination, see pictures) can slow down your entire network. Good cable not only performs at rated speed, it reduces packet-collisions and other sources of errors.
Telephone systems are somewhat more forgiving, but bad cable can still cause intermittent faults that are time-consuming to diagnose. "Low-bid" jobs often result in hidden inflexibility that makes it expensive to add another telephone here or there. Good cable eliminates these expensive "surprises." Once it's done, you know that your phones will perform as designed, and that you can add phones easily. And, while one doesn't usually think of such utilitarian fixtures in aesthetic terms, good cable and outlets harmonize with your decor. Wires can be concealed in walls or discrete moldings along your baseboards. Jacks can be mounted flush, like your power outlets. The entire installation looks like it belongs, rather than looking like an afterthought. Voice and data cable are the foundation of your office information network. Just as a house needs a strong foundation, so does your network. Cooperative Digital specifies cable and facilities by Integrated Signal, one of the Bay Area's oldest and most trusted names in network wiring. They're part of our team and we're part of theirs. With an Integrated Signal network, you can relax knowing that a job done right is a network you can count on for years to come. Contact us for a site survey at no cost or obligation. |

Example of bad data jack
Over 1" exposed conductors. Noise, packet collisions, bogged-down network, trouble. Wouldn't even pass Cat 3 |
Example of good data jack
Properly terminated, no exposed conductors. Good for full rated bandwidth. The details make the difference. |
