Installation Isn’t Rocket Science: Debunking 5 Common Myths About Networking Hardware Setup
In today’s high-performance IT environments, uptime is currency. But despite this urgency, many organizations delay critical infrastructure upgrades. Why? Because of one lingering fear: installation complexity.

From server rooms to edge networks, there’s a myth-fueled mindset that installing new hardware means downtime, special expertise, and endless configuration. The truth? Most of that fear is outdated.
At BW Solution Tech, we’ve engineered our products to eliminate setup friction — making installation faster, smarter, and supported every step of the way.
Let’s debunk the five biggest myths about networking hardware installation.
Smart PDUs Need Special Electricians
It sounds logical: if it’s a “power” device, you must need an electrical specialist. But today’s intelligent PDUs (iPDUs) — especially those from BW — are designed for the IT admin, not an electrician.
The Reality:
- BW’s iPDUs come with standard plugs and pre-labeled inputs
- Installation is often plug-and-play — as easy as connecting a coffee machine
- Each unit ships with install cards, and BW offers remote onboarding calls for guided setup
🔌 Pro Tip: With BW’s iPDUs, you’re never left alone. One call, and you’re connected to remote support in minutes.
SFP Modules Are Hard to Match with Devices
Fear of misconfiguration often stops teams from upgrading transceivers. Compatibility can seem like a guessing game.
The Reality:
- BW provides clear compatibility charts for popular switch models
- Our tech team offers live chat and consults to verify matches
- Over 95% of switches in the market are plug-compatible with our SFPs
📦 Each SFP ships with labeling for port mapping — and installation takes under 30 seconds.
Fiber Patch Cords Are Fragile and Tricky
Legacy fiber used to be fragile. Installers wore gloves and worked cautiously. Not anymore.
The Reality:
- BW’s patch cords are armored, bend-insensitive, and certified
- All cables are color-coded and labeled for quick identification
- We offer free custom labeling for bulk orders — saving hours during rack builds
🧷 Modern fiber cables can be managed just like copper — without the fear factor.
Media Converters Require Software
Old-school media converters may have needed config or drivers. Today’s don’t.
The Reality:
- BW’s media converters are passive, auto-sensing devices
- No software or drivers required
- Plug-to-link in under a minute
💡 In most use cases, setup is as simple as connecting Ethernet and fiber — the device does the rest.
CCTV Setup Takes Days
The idea of mounting cameras, running power, configuring DVRs — it sounds time-consuming. But our surveillance gear is made for rapid deployment.
The Reality:
- BW’s IP cameras are PoE-ready, drawing power and data over one cable
- Setup via QR scan + mobile app in minutes
- Access cloud view in under 5 minutes
📸 Enterprise-grade security shouldn’t take enterprise-level hours to set up.
