Network Accessories
Network accessories are crucial components that add functionality and efficiency to the networking environment. They support and protect the network infrastructure and make it easier to manage. Among the many network accessories one could name, cable management accessories are some of the most important. Cable organizers, trays, and ties help you keep your setup orderly and reduce the amount of visible cabling. Because of the way network cables can bundle up and twist together, good airflow is also essential around network equipment, for cooling purposes—in this respect, cable management accessories can aid airflow and really help you to keep your network tidy.
Network accessories accentuate space usage and guarantee secure and sturdy device mounts. Power distribution units and uninterruptible power supplies are also vital for power management and protection. Rack-mounted PDUs power up devices across the rack. UPS units also vie for rack space, ready to protect all these mounted devices from power surges and to supply backup power to the mounted devices in the event of an outage. Both PDUs and UPS units are essential accessories in the data center.
