What are the Best Practices to be Followed for 
Network Cabling? 
Network cabling forms the foundation for all communication channels within an 
organisation. A reliable network cabling system allows organisations to achieve 
maximum efficiency and increased productivity. 
Network cabling installations need expertise for their proper working. The cable 
installation and management are tasks that require some specialization and 
prior knowledge. 
 
Steps to Follow for Effective Network Cabling Installation: 
Avoid bundling cables: Placing Ethernet cables over each other should be 
avoided during the installation process. Bundling of cable will lead to reduced 
performance and also the risk of damages. While carrying out the installation 
process the cables should be twisted properly to reduce electromagnetic 
interference. 
Avoid too much of twisting: The Ethernet cables and the fiber optic cables 
should be separated to avoid crushing of the fiber optic cables. The heavy weight 
of the Ethernet cables can crush the fiber optic cables. The Ethernet cables 
should be of good quality having high resistance against bend loss. Avoid extra 
twists as it can stress the cables and reduce performance. Bending the Ethernet 
cables beyond bend radius, applying pressure or stapling with the cable ties, and 
creating tensions in the suspension runs. 
Labelling: It always comes in handy in traceability and identification. Therefore, 
it is necessary to properly label each of the Ethernet cables at the starting and 
the termination points during the installation process. The Ethernet cables 
 
 
should never be run through pipes and holes as doing so will curtail the addition 
of cable runs in the future. 
Test the cables: Each and every cable should be tested during termination and 
installation phase. The Ethernet cables should be avoided from direct exposure 
to the sunlight and condensation. Removing abandoned cables helps in avoiding 
and increased temperature and blockage of airflow. It helps in increasing the 
durability of the network system. 
Better to use higher category Ethernet cable: It is always better to use higher 
categories Ethernet cables as they give room for up-gradation to meet 
application requirements in the future. Horizontal, vertical, and overhead cable 
managers should be used to place the cables. Avoid leaving the cables on the 
floor. Using cable spool devices helps to prevent sharp bends and kinks.
