Is Your Office Ready To Reopen?
As companies across the country and around the world plan to bring their employees back to the office, it’s now time to consider what that office will look like. Ensuring a productive and safe workplace is essential and many leaders are taking this time to re-invent their space, reduce costs and improve employee collaboration & efficiency.
The pandemic has taught us that there alternative ways of working and we now must reimagine how work is done, and the role offices will play, going forward. Many people have been surprised by how effective videoconferencing and various other forms of digital collaboration have been since the pandemic began and may find that working remotely will continue. Others may be redesigning spaces to ensure physical distancing, or better accommodate the usual congested zones such as kitchens and elevator areas.
REDESIGNING YOUR WORKPLACE TO SUPPORT NEW PRIORITIES WILL PLAY A KEY ROLE IN ENABLING EMPLOYEES TO SAFELY RETURN TO THE OFFICE.
The typical office – a mix of desks, private offices, conference rooms and common spaces may be old news. The future transformation may include remote working, co-working spaces, and flexible space solutions. Perhaps you’re considering Office Hoteling, a reservation based method of office management where employees schedule their use of workspaces, including offices, cubicles, meeting rooms and equipment. Or perhaps it’s a socially-distanced conference room with specialized break-out rooms for brainstorming and collaborating. Either way, dynamic spaces could very well be the way of the future and Millside is here to assist with that transition.

Some of the benefits of structured cabling:
RELIABILITY
One of the most significant benefits of structured cabling is the high bandwidth it delivers. It provides a reliable infrastructure to support the ongoing growth of your business. IT that is adaptable, reliable and scalable is critical to the deployment of new services. With structured cabling, you can be assured that your network infrastructure won’t become outdated and will fully support new applications as your business develops.
ADAPTABILITY
A structured cabling system is truly adaptable and can help improve business performance by providing a high level of flexibility when moves, adds & changes need to be made to your system. It allows you to easily add a workstation, deploy a wireless access point or upgrade to fiber optic cabling. Structured cabling systems support the addition of new network cabinets and provide the ability to reconfigure patch panels as needed. Better yet, you have the option of changing the layout of your cabling system without the hassle of sorting through an endless, tangled mess of cables.
ORGANIZATION
If a problem occurs, it is considerably easier to pinpoint the issue and solve it with a straightforward, organized structured cabling system. With numerous devices and IT equipment all being used at the same time, operating from one effective system eliminates the problems that come with multiple wiring infrastructures. A logical cabling system eliminates wasted time & money spent on locating and rectifying any issues.
