| Fiber backbone cabling in buildings |
| Until recently, the horizontal cabling in most buildings was designed to support speeds up to 1 Gbps to the desk, with 1000BASE-T considered ample bandwidth for horizontal applications in enterprise buildings. However, recent advances in wireless technologies have pushed horizontal bandwidth beyond 1 Gbps—and the broad adoption of these technologies is a herald of a broader need for faster network speeds elsewhere in the horizontal and backbone network. |
