Horizontal Cabling is the portion of structured cabling that runs from a horizontal distribution area out to the equipment outlets at each cabinet or rack. It represents the last segment reaching the servers and switches, is typically the most numerous cabling in a data hall, and its length and media are constrained so links stay within transceiver reach.
