Insurance offices rely on a variety of systems that necessitate low voltage cabling for their operations. Here's a breakdown of what these might include:
Network Infrastructure:
- Local Area Network (LAN): Essential for connecting all office devices including computers, servers, and printers.
Security Systems:
- CCTV Cameras: Surveillance cameras need low voltage cabling to transmit video feeds back to monitoring stations.
- Access Control Systems: For managing who can enter secure areas, often involving card readers or biometric scanners.
Telecommunications:
- Telephone Systems: Including VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) phones which require both power and data transmission.
- Intercoms: For internal communication within the branch.
Point of Sale Terminals:
- These systems need reliable network connections for transactions, which are typically supported by low voltage cabling.
Specialized Insurance Terminals:
- Specialized systems for handling customer inquiries, policy management, and claims processing.
Wireless Access Points:
- To provide Wi-Fi coverage, which still often relies on wired backhaul for connectivity.
Backup and Redundancy Systems
- UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) systems might use low voltage for monitoring and control, ensuring critical systems stay online during power outages.
Audio Video Equipment:
- For conference rooms or training areas, where projectors, sound systems, and video conferencing equipment might be installed.
Digital Signage:
- For internal communications or customer-facing displays, which might pull content from the network.
