That’s why pretty much everyone involved in the power sector — from utilities to buyers to start-ups to state regulators — is putting more energy than ever behind ways to extend it. That’s fuelling a boom in projects and investments centred on advanced battery chemistries and alternative energy storage approaches, such as hydrogen fuel cells and thermal options that use hot water or ice to conserve power. The Holy Grail over time is to create a network of resources that can be used in concert with solar and wind farms.

Cabling Certification: Multi-Everything Is the New Normal — Part 1
Today’s IT discussions are filled with such terms as Cloud, Virtualization, SANs, BYOD, SaaS, and SLAs. Rarely is the physical layer — Layer 1 of the 7-Layer OSI Model — part of the buzz. But at the end of the day, all network technologies lead back to that critical, foundational layer and the cabling infrastructure that supports it.
