week 4

In week 4 of network management and infrastructure we read chapter 6 which discussed solid cables and stranded cables and the advantages and disadvantages of each as well as read about how to properly set up a server room and where to set up your wiring room in correspondence to the server room.  One of the differences between solid cables and stranded cables are that they are thicker and have higher conductivity and are better suited to being utility lines due to their rigidity where stranded cables are smaller individual cables put together they have much higher flexibility then solid wires.
