Being a communication cable contractor for both business and residential I get calls from people all the time about installing cable to support a telephone, computer or a plasma screen TV. The location of anyone of this devises May well be in a room that is inaccessible without a tremendous expense for the home or business owner. Some times it's impossible to install cables in some buildings after the walls are completed. Its so much cheaper to cable a building when the walls are open and the studs are showing.
The time to have your cable installed is not when walls are painted and pictures are hung. Take this tip from me if you are in the process of building that dream home dont forget to have your building contractor include a structured wiring system.
A Structured Wiring System is the cable and connecting hardware (wall jacks, patch panels etc.) in a building that connects telephones, computers, and video/sound devices. Structured cabling system meets standards that make allowance for equipment to be added or change without having to modify the cabling that is in the walls. Structured cabling system by design takes in to account your future needs so cable is ran to every room location that data voice video may be needed. As technology advance and new equipment for faster Internet, better surround sound system, or TV Screens are developed you can be sure your structured cable system will be able to handle it for years to come.
