Depending on the make and model of your generator, the frequency of maintenance may vary, but a rough guide is to get it serviced every 6-12 months or every 500 hours of operation, whichever comes first. A portable generator needs a spark plug change every 100-150 hours!

The General Lifespan of a Generator – How Long do Generators Last? If you would buy a generator today, it would generally last you 15 to 20 years depending on the availability of the repair components. The repair is an important part of the life of the generator.

Overusing a generator can cause a fire. Plugging in too many cords can overwhelm the machine and damage it.

Structured cabling design and installation is governed by a set of standards that specify wiring data centers, offices, and apartment buildings for data or voice communications using various kinds of cable, most commonly Category 5e (Cat 5e), Category 6 (Cat 6), and fiber-optic cabling and modular connectors.

The minimum life span to plan for is 10 years, the average life expectancy is 15 years, while you should probably strive for a lifespan between 10 and 20 years.

Cybersecurity risks: Networked video surveillance systems are vulnerable to hacking and data breaches, which could compromise the privacy and security of the monitored area. Reliability: Technical issues, such as power outages or camera malfunctions, can temporarily render a video surveillance system ineffective.

IP-based video surveillance systems are the most common choice today due to the compatibility to integrate with most devices. IP-based cameras provide higher image quality, scalability, and cloud-based access compared to traditional, analog CCTV systems.

One of the more common questions we hear is “how far back can CCTV go?” It makes sense that people want to know how long these cameras keep footage. The answer is different for each system and each set up but, in general, most organizations retain security footage for at least 90 days.

The basic concept of Access Control is a system that either grants or denies entry to a lock or door by determining the identity of the person; this can be done by biometrics, passwords, key cards, and everything in between.

There are four types of access control methods: Mandatory Access Control (MAC), Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), Discretionary Access Control (DAC), and Rule-Based Access Control (RBAC or RB-RBAC). A method is chosen based on the level of access needed by each user, security requirement, infrastructure, etc.

The cloud is software installed on a server in another place in the world that users can access anywhere they are via the internet. With the cloud, users can access a specific software anywhere there is an internet connection.

The quality of most VoIP calls is generally better or equal to the call quality of traditional phones. Since it relies on an internet connection, the quality of a VoIP call largely depends on the quality of your internet connection. However, there are still some things users can do to improve VoIP call quality.

Yes, VoIP allows users to use their computer that’s connected to the internet at the same time as their VoIP phone.

VoIP offers many benefits for businesses including lower costs, better accessibility, portability, higher scalability, and it can make working remotely much easier for workers and employees.

Examples of information technology include computer hardware and software, networks and telecommunications systems, databases and information management systems, and Internet and web-based technologies.

IT service providers will run regular tests, update operating systems and software, and constantly monitor your network to ensure your confidential data is safe. This helps ensure your company is always one step ahead of potential cyber threats.
