Seems to be a good thing that the cables are at least suspended above the lights.thank everyone for their contribution to an unexpected education this morning.

We have an office about 100' from our server and have had no data or cable issues.

Is there any info from major companies that I can give him or am I being overly concerned? Thanks Marc
