Security & SurveillanceProtecting your investment is more important than ever. One way of accomplishing this is through the implementation of Security and surveillance systems. Security & Surveillance systems not only provide a level of deterrence, but they will also provide notification and documentation if and when an event occurs.
Access Control
Both traditional wired and IP based access control systems can be designed and implemented in an entire building or in specific areas where an additional level of security is desired. Access Control systems can provide you with an audit trail of who entered and exited a building, area, or room while helping to provide the additional level of security desired.
Fire Alarms
Detection and notification are the first steps in ensuring fire safety and are required in most areas. Effectively detecting fire and smoke and the subsequent notification of building occupants help to ensure individuals evacuate the area. Schaedler Yesco has solutions for a multitude of applications including residential 120 volt interconnected smoke detectors.
Call Systems
Call systems are an integral part of any security and life safety system. Blue Light Emergency Phones, Area of Refuge, Nurse Call, and Mass Notification are some of the various types of systems that Schaedler Yesco can assist with.
Business continuity relies on consistent power.Ensuring your network and devices remain online and available during a power outage is critical to ensuring business continuity. Schaedler Yesco has the expertise to help you choose the best solution for your business.
Be confident in your system.Troubleshooting and providing proof performance are key to maintaining a reliable structured cabling system. Whether telephone, data, copper or fiber, Schaedler Yesco can help you choose the right testing equipment for the project. We can also provide you with the training to ensure proper usage of those tools.
Counterfeit Cable?
From watches to handbags to electronics and mechanical parts, a lot of products are victim to counterfeiting and cable isn't immune!
There are many reasons counterfeiting is an issue:
- Making Code and Standard compliant product is expensive
- There are unscrupulous manufacturers out there and it's "easy" to fake compliance
- People want a “bargain”
- Not everyone knows the signs of non-compliant product
So how can you tell if your cable is counterfeit?
- Packaging and/or cable shows UL symbol on package or cable but the package does not have the UL holographic label
- Every box of UL Listed cable requires a holographic label - If there's no label, the cable may be non-compliant to NEC
- The packaging is deceptively advertised and marketed as fully compliant -- for example “Plenum rated” / “Plenum cable” / “Plenum approved”
- UL Public Notices are issued to warn users - Visit the UL website and the Intertek website for more info (see links in right hand tool bar)
- Poor quality and packaging
- Additional warning signs include:
- Unfamiliar brands from unknown manufacturers
- Only available from online vendors
- Poor English on company website
- No information or hidden information on factory location or country of origin
What are the risks of having non-compliant cable?
- Safety!
- Most importantly, using non-compliant cable is a safety risk
- Liability for Installation of Non-Compliant Cable
- Installers have a legal responsibility (a duty of care) to ensure the products they install are compliant to local building codes
- “..a duty of care is a legal obligation which is imposed on an individual requiring adherence to a standard of reasonable care while performing any acts that could foreseeably harm others.”
- Liability exists whether or not the installer actually knows (or verifies) the product is non-compliant
- Consequences for the installation of non-compliant cable
- Vary by state but can include fines and/or imprisonment for building code violation
- Some states impose fines for each day the code violation exists
- Certificate of Occupancy may not be issued to building owner/tenant
- Possible Civil Liability
How can you avoid buying non-compliant cable?
- Always purchase your cable from a distributor like Schaedler Yesco that guarantees their product is authentic and fully compliant with all applicable codes.
