Microsoft power point it cabling infrastructure design concepts
The document discusses concepts for designing an IT infrastructure network. It emphasizes security, availability, scalability, and manageability. It recommends 10 Gigabit Ethernet and single-mode fiber cabling to support current and future needs. Pre-terminated cabling systems and angled patch panels are proposed to improve deployment speed, maximize density, and simplify management. An intelligent cabling system integrated with network monitoring is suggested to provide complete physical and logical visibility of the network.
