Delray Medical Center, a Tenet South Florida HealthSystem hospital, has chosen the Siemon Company's TERA solution for the cabling infrastructure for the building's new state-of-the-art imaging center.
Delray Medical Center is a 372-bed acute care facility that opened in October 1982 and
serves as the hub of the 42-acre Delray Medical Campus. For the past three years, Delray Medical Center ranked among the top 5% nationwide for cardiac services by HealthGrades, a leading healthcare ratings firm; in the top 50 hospitals nationwide for heart and heart surgery by U.S. News & World Report; and ranked among the best hospitals for cardiac surgery by Money Magazine. For the second year in succession, Delray Medical Center also ranked among the Top 100 Hospitals in the nation by Solucient.
Delray IS Director Cathy D. Christensen chose the Siemon TERA solution for the center's cabling infrastructure. Radiology Departments are not always "noise free" environments where cabling is concerned, and the TERA Category 7/class F shielded system is designed to provide excellent immunity to noise. It is also 10 Gigabit Ethernet ready when needed and can offer protection for the center's investments in both network devices and medical devices alike.
"The reason that we chose TERA is to take advantage of the reliability factor that TERA affords us, as well as to position ourselves to benefit from the speed that will be available with future technology," says Christensen. "We wanted to provide our physicians with a solution that will meet their needs and allow them to realize productivity goals, without being hindered by technology."
The Siemon Company is based in Watertown, CT. For more information visit
