Perimeter Trunking Systems

Perimeter Trunking Systems: An Overview

A Perimeter Trunking System is a cable management solution designed to route and protect electrical wiring, data cables, and other utility services along the perimeter of a room. These systems are commonly used in offices, schools, hospitals, and other commercial or industrial buildings where efficient cable distribution is essential.

Components and Design
A typical perimeter trunking system consists of:

Trunking Units – These are the main enclosures that house and protect cables. They are usually made of plastic (PVC) or metal (aluminum or steel) and come in various sizes and configurations.
Dividers and Compartments – Many systems feature internal dividers that allow segregation of power, data, and communication cables to prevent electrical interference.
Accessories – These include bends, tees, couplers, end caps, and joints that enable customization of the system layout.
Fixing and Support Mechanisms – Brackets, clips, and other fixtures ensure secure attachment to walls, floors, or ceilings.
