Three Important Considerations
Three major points to consider during the planning phase of a TIWAY I
network cabling system are system expansion, system flexibility, and noise.
System Expansion
From the start, allow for system growth. This means making provisions for
the attachment of additional computing devices by routing cables through
all probable areas of future plant expansion.
System Flexibility
Always make the network flexible enough to allow for rearrangement of
plant equipment.
Noise
Since network system noise is usually picked up by its interconnecting
wiring steps should be taken at the onset to bypass or eliminate noise
sources.
