Simple phone wiring lasts for many decades, and there are millions of houses out there that were built in the early 1900s with telephone wires where those wires have barely seen any work or upgrades. They remain suitable for voice calling on traditional phones.
However, using those lines for DSL communications can become troublesome, and finding a cable line in an old building can feel like a scavenger hunt with no end. That’s where help from PC ASAP comes in handy as we offer network cabling services and traditional phone cabling for homeowners and business owners in the North Dallas region.
Your building might have one of a few different types of wiring. One is called a “daisy chain” and features wiring that looks like a line with a device placed every so often along that line. If there is a single break anywhere in the line, all the devices downstream of that break are impacted.
Alternatively, you might have wiring referred to as “star topology,” which means all the separate devices are connected individually to their services. When there is a break somewhere in the system, only the single device at the end of that break is affected.
Did you know that the 50-year-old wiring in your building may restrict the speed of your modem? Although you might upgrade to the newest and fastest modem on the market, your network cabling might cause some serious issues that even the best equipment can’t solve.
It’s not uncommon for a business owner to upgrade the technology inside the business and not consider the age or capabilities of the wiring in the building. The same is true for homeowners who buy expensive telecommunications equipment and wonder why their brand new modem is so “slow” in streaming movies.
Your solution may require phone cable repair or network cable repair of old and aged wiring, or you might need to consider completely new installation of new wiring. Options include bundling fiber-optic cables, using twisted-pair cable, or installing coaxial cables for home and business networks.
