More on "Sleepless in Nashua"


Dec 1, 1997

It`s refreshing to see someone in our industry make some noise (see "Four great mysteries of the cabling industry," July 1997, page 5). We cable contractors evolved from straight cable-pullers for the telephone companies. In a few cases, we are now all-around cable installation companies. So it irks me that the industry is now trying to make it sound like structured cabling is something that should be installed by electricians and designed by people who work on computers.
