Cable Management - IT Carbon Foot Print
"It's not easy being green in IT."
Technology advances in IT will never stop, new types of cabling are being designed daily, we had Cat5, Cat5e, then Cat6 and now (10G Cat6a), everyone wants to install the latest to future proof. Optical fibre has advanced in more ways than you could have imagined, OM1, OM2 then OM3, now everyone is looking at (40G OM4) will the hardware support it "I bet it will soon"
Have you calculated your Carbon footprint or been asked to consider your Impact.
We have all been to the seminars, read the journals and have listened to the impact on the environment. What improvements we make now will be our Green Future. While its not feasible for existing IT and Data Centre managers to rip out their existing IT infrastructure and start over, both in terms of practicality and cost.
We have seen over the last year that businesses are beginning to considering the benefits of running their IT more energy efficient and when replacing cabling or looking to save costs.
Phoenix can assist in the removal of your obsolete and redundant cabling and advise you on what can be recycled.
