Voice & Data Cabling

An optical fiber cable, also known as a fiber optic cable, is an assembly similar to an electrical cable, but containing one or more optical fibers that are used to carry light. The optical fiber elements are typically individually coated with plastic layers and contained in a protective tube suitable for the environment where the cable will be installed. Different types of cable are used for different applications such as long distance telecommunication or providing a high-speed data connection between different parts of a building. Fiber optic patch cables are commonly used in commercial fiber network installations. Fiber optic patch cables are easy to use because they are already pre-terminated, tested, and ready for plug and play installation. Let Optima make sure your fiber optic cabling is installed correctly at an affordable price.

Data Cabling are used to for computers, printers, servers, network routers, switches and telecommunications equipment such as an office telephone system. The past few years have seen some tremendous advances, not only in networking technologies, but also in the demands placed on them. In the past 20 years, we have seen the emergence of standards for 10Mb Ethernet, 16Mb Token Ring, 100Mb FDDI, 100Mb Ethernet, 155Mb ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode), 655Mb ATM, 1Gb Ethernet, 2.5Gb ATM., and 10Gb Ethernet. Companies are already planning their network to support data rates of up to 100Gbps. Make sure your company isn’t left behind. Let Optima make sure your data cabling is updated and installed correctly.

The oldest and the most common use for a cabling system is to carry telephone signals. Pairs of copper are wired throughout a building to carry the phone signal from a central telephone closet to the individual telephone handsets. In the telephone closet, the individual wires are brought together to be mechanically and electrically connected to all the incoming telephone lines so that the entire building was connected to the outside world. Today’s telephone networks are run along the same cabling paths as the data cabling. Additionally, telephone systems use the same UTP cable that many networks use for carrying data. They will usually share the same wiring closets with the data and tele-vision cabling. The wires from telephone connections can be terminated almost identically to data cabling. Let Optima make sure your telecommunication cabling are updated and installed correctly.

CAT5 is an Ethernet network cable standard. CAT5 cables contain four pairs of copper wire supporting Fast Ethernet speeds (up to 100 Mbps). Although CAT5 cable usually contains four pairs of copper wire, Fast Ethernet communications only use two pairs. Category 5 Ethernet cable remains the popular choice for most wired local area networks because of the combination of affordability and high performance that Ethernet gear offers. We have professional installers that will make your CAT5 cabling look nice and neat at an affordable price.
