| VoIP
The rising buzzword in the internet community is VoIP.
VoIP stands for voice over internet protocol. VoIP uses broadband Internet connectivity to dial. Using VoIP phone service will save you on your monthly business phone bill. VoIP providers are competing against each other to bring you the best plan. InSystinc can help find you the best VoIP system.
Moving an office is a daunting task. If improperly planed, can add unnecessary expense and loss of productivity. An office move involves more than simply moving physical objects from one location to another. InSystinc will plan the move as early as possible.
Difference between cat5 and cat6
How to determine your Telecommunications and network cabling needs.
The conveyance media you choose for your structured cabling implementation is determined by many factors. The most important of witch are your current bandwith needs, your future bandwith needs, and your budget.
Why do I need bandwith of category 6?
Bandwith precedes data rates just as highways come before traffic. Doubling the bandwith is like adding twice the number of lanes on a highway. The trends of the past are that data rates double every !8 months. Current applications running at 1GBs are already at the limits of cat 5e cabling.. Category 6 will accept the higher bandwith as streaming video and multi media become comonplace. What is the difference between cat 5 and cat 6. The general difference between cat 5 and cat 6 is in the transmission performance, and extension of the available bandwith from 100 MHz for cat 5e to 200 MHz for cat 6.
This includes better insertion loss, near end crosstalk, return loss, and equal level far end crosstalk. These improvements provide a higher signal to noise ratio, allowing higher reliability for current applications and higher data rates for future applications.. Analyst predict that 80 to 90 percent of all new installations will be cat 6 cabling. Applications that work over cat 5e will also work over cat 6.
Why would I skip category 6 and go straight to optical fiber?
You can certainly do that but will find that a fiber system is still very expensive. Today optical fiber is about twice as expensive as an equivalent system built using cat 6. Additionally, copper cabling supports the emerging Data Terminal Equipment power standard under development by IEEE.
Coaxial Cabling
Knowing how to install and terminate coax cable properly is critical to achieving impedance matching. Knowledge and selection of the best available materials greatly increases efficiency.
Coax cables carry a nominal impedance of between 35 and 185 ohms. The three most common coax cables are 50 ohms, 75 ohms (the cable you most likely using at home for your TV) and 93 ohms.
