Data Centers from Edge to Cloud
Our Focus
To manage a stress-free data cabling installation for your company
PTS Data Center Cabling Architectural services provides a careful analysis of data center IT key design criteria to determine the best approaches to take regarding cabling design.
Effective Cable Architecture Design results in:
- Access layer flexibility
- Capacity and service scalability
- High availability and fabric stability
- Consistency
- Easy operations and management
- A simple, deterministic topology


Quality Cable Architecture Design requires consideration for:
- Top-of-Rack vs. End-of-Row Aggregation
- Field Terminated vs. Pre-Terminated Cabling
- Inside-of-Cabinet vs. Outside-of-Cabinet Termination
- Copper vs. Fiber Media
