As seen in abundance on social media at Reddit's sub-group for classic cabling photos, great on-site tradecraft in information and technology communications technology (ICT) is like a lot of classic things with legacies that never go out of style, and persist throughout the decades. Old school technology still drives the bus and pays the bills in many cases.
Old School Cabling $$$ QUOTE:
"As the size of networks grew during the last decade, we saw a shift from classical three-tier network architectures to a flatter and wider spine-and-leaf architecture. With its fully meshed connectivity approach, spine-and-leaf architecture provided us the predictable high-speed network performance we were craving and also the reliability within our network switch fabric. However, along with its advantages, spine-and-leaf architecture presents certain challenges in terms of structured cabling." -- Mustafa Keskin, Corning Optical Communications
"1906, Georgetown Steam Plant." -- Reddit/Cableporn OP: u/nuje_nuje
