You installed good equipment. You chose a cabling system that would meet your needs. You even performed a network audit. But, can you really be certain that your network is ready for the next killer application? No matter how good your active equipment, it is at the mercy of your cabling. And your cabling, regardless of the grade chosen, is only as good as the installation. Did your audit cover these physical layer performance challenges?

Your Network audit, like most IT network audits, may have stopped at an inspection of active electronics. When planning for real time systems such as VoIP/IPT or high-speed applications such as 10G transmission, a full network audit is critical. A GridWork audit provides a full assessment of your entire network infrastructure.

GridWork delivers actionable reports and recommendations, tracking problem channels to their root causes, whether they reside in the active equipment or the cabling channel. With studies showing that over 50% of systems do not perform to their printed specifications, you cannot benchmark your network's performance by the label on your components. Factors such as quality of design, installation and maintenance play a critical role in reliable network transmissions. A GridWork audit can help ensure that your network performs as it should and is ready to handle your next generation applications.
