Structured cabling denotes a comprehensive cabling system inclusive of associated devices, providing a holistic communications infrastructure. This infrastructure serves diverse purposes, encompassing phone service and the transmission of data across computer networks. Structured cabling is characterized as the cabling infrastructure within a building or campus, encompassing telecommunication or ethernet cabling. A well-designed and properly installed structured cabling system furnishes the flexibility to modify the cabling, optimizes system availability, and ensures consistent performance.

The primary categories of structured cabling encompass fiber optic cables and copper cables. A fiber optic cable constitutes a medium containing one or more optical fibers for the high-speed transmission of data. Copper cable, on the other hand, is a physical cable medium crafted from copper for data transmission. Various industries, including IT & telecommunication, residential & commercial, government & education, and transportation, employ structured cabling for applications in local area networks (LAN) and data centers.
