Structured cabling may only represent around 5% of a project’s network budget, but it can remain in place for decades. As software, switches, devices and smart building systems continue to evolve, the cabling behind the walls plays a major role in what the building can support next.

https://zurl.co/KELgw

Structured cabling is easy to overlook because it’s usually not the biggest number in the network budget; generally around 5% of a project.

06/25/2026

We’re halfway through 2026, and the structured cabling market is feeling pressure from multiple directions. Fiber demand, longer lead times, plenum cable constraints and broader smart-building supply issues are making early conversations more important for projects heading into the second half of the year.

https://zurl.co/wLllS

In a nutshell, here’s what we’re halfway through 2026: Fiber demand is high. Data centers are pulling a lot of product. Lead times are stretching. Plenum cable needs closer attention. Some flame-retardant materials used in cable jackets, including Teflon, are under supply-chain strain.

Your project manager shouldn’t be spending hours chasing spec sheets and assembling submittal packages. Capital Electric turns the product data already tied to your quote into a clean, organized submittal package, helping your team spend less time on paperwork and more time moving projects forward.
https://zurl.co/bcEJX

Most distributors give you a quote and leave the submittal work to your team. Capital Electric keeps going. Once the job moves forward, we use the product data already tied to your quote to create a clean submittal package, saving your project manager hours of manual work.

We’re setting up a side-by-side Hanwha camera demo to show you how 2MP, 5MP and 8MP cameras perform in the same real-world lighting conditions…and why the right answer isn’t always more megapixels.

https://zurl.co/qVeRR

More megapixels sounds better…and sometimes, it is. But sometimes more is overkill, adding cost and capability you may never actually need.

CommScope’s updated cable management platform is finally here, giving teams two practical paths for cleaner, easier-to-service racks: CableGuide 360™ for dense, high-change environments and CableGuide Essential™ for jobs that need cleaner routing and cable protection in a more streamlined design.

https://zurl.co/v14ca

As racks get denser and network rooms keep absorbing more devices, cable management has to do more than keep things looking clean. It needs to make future moves, adds and changes easier.
