CABLExpress® Cable Talk™ #30 - Data Center Cabling is an Investment Not a Cost

In this episode, JT talks about the "Respect Layer One" message. Why it is important in data center structured cabling systems to view cabling as an investment versus a cost? Because viewing it as a cost can lead to downtime. Maximize your uptime by leveraging proper data center design and educating your team on product performance, the TIA-942 and other industry standards. By adhering to the standards, you will avoid falling for proprietary gimmicks. Ensure your structured cabling system will last through generations of hardware and ensure smooth migration to 40/100G Ethernet and 16G fibre channel from hardware manufacturers like Cisco Nexus platform and Brocade DCX and 48000 platforms.
