Open office architecture allows a consolidation point to be implemented for interconnecting permanent horizontal cables to extension cables that are placed in furniture raceways.

Explanation:

A consolidation point (CP) is a piece that allows the connection between the power of the building extending from the core floor or wall (patch panel) to the movable cables in the raceway of the workstation.

It is important to consider that he initial installation time can be increased, which also means that it would have higher installation costs as the labeling and documentation tend to be more difficult.

On the other hand, consolidation point provides an easy and cost friendly possibility to rearrange horizontal cabling in open offices if a future reconfiguration needs to be made. Also, it is easier to maintain and replace cables and parts which means that using power at base can decrease installation and reconfiguration time.
