Cabling considerations
Cabling : major time & costs component
• Trenching, cable runways, grounding
• Surge protection, waterproofing, firestopping
Reduce cabling complexity
• Multi-sensor cameras = 1 cable / switch port
• PoE extenders: Transmitting UTP >100m
Reuse cables :
• UTP couplers/cables repair kit
• Cabling Testing/ Warranty
• Using existing coaxial cables for IP devices
