Structural wiring creates corporate ICT infrastructure, and therefore a kind of blood circulation network in the building. It is possible thanks to kablom is communication between different devices, so that their quality, consistent, their distribution and easy access is one of the most important elements to decide on the reliability of the entire network. Thanks to the use of structured cabling, it is possible to not only connect devices to networks in properly anywhere in the building, but also - which is no less important - do so in a very simple way. As part of any network can distinguish the two levels of structured cabling: horizontal and vertical, and distribution points (access).

Access Point is a place where coincides with the wiring from one area subordinate to him. Depending on the complexity of network architecture, you can highlight a few points of distribution levels, but we - for example clarity - we believe that there are only two types: indirect access points covering the area between the building (eg, floors), and access point central scalający whole network, and further assume that evaluate the network in just one building. Intermediate distribution points are usually in small spaces, where is located the so-called. wardrobe and switchgear equipment passive and active, responsible for receiving and transmitting the signals to and from the subordinate point.

The horizontal cabling network is the one part that connects the user with the access point, and consists of several elements that we show in order "from the end user." The first of these elements will therefore point screen through which it is possible to connect - using the appropriate cable (UTP or Fiber) - equipment users to the network. It usually takes the form of skirting the sockets wtykowymi type RJ-45 and mining. The remainder of the horizontal wiring is already well beyond the typical user's eyes - in special listwach, under floors or in technical suspended ceilings - there are the cables which link the screen, point to point distribution, where the signal is transmitted to the vertical cabling.

Vertical structural cabling (the so-called backbone) connects intermediate distribution points, with the central point of distribution, which is also called. The point of Central Network, including servers, networking equipment and other Internet access point for the entire network. Typically, this level of wiring is placed in a special cable channel, which allows easy access to all the running in the cables.
