Having the correct cabling infrastructure layout and following the
proper cabling techniques can have big impact on the network performance
of your company and the amount of time one spends troubleshooting network
issues. However, no matter how well designed and well laid out your
network may be, it is essential that one have an understanding of the
problems one can run into, and have the appropriate tools to solve those
issues.
Several of the most common wiring infrastructure issues that can impact
network performance are:
- Exceeding Media Limitations
- Noise problems in the signal distribution
- Improper cable terminations on network cabling can take its toll
on network performance caused intermittent speed and reliability problems.
- Interference such as electromagnetic wavelengths - Problems generated
by interference can be extremely difficult to isolate. Mistakes such
as running twisted pair wiring near fluorescent lighting can result
in severely degraded network performance from noise.
- Wear and Tear - damaged network media can cause a range of problems,
ranging from intermittent connectivity drops in shared media to more
elusive performance issues, such as increased vulnerability to interference
in a wire with frayed shielding.
The best strategy for dealing with this is to avoid problems during
the network's installation. Be careful to consider any potential sources
of interference and carefully deal with them during installation or
use a media type that is not susceptible to the interference.
