recabling
Swapping out cords
Recabling is the process of replacing or rerouting cables in a system—typically electrical wiring, network infrastructure, or audio-visual equipment.
The work usually involves removing old or damaged cables and installing new ones: The office renovation requires complete recabling of the server room.
The term implies cables already exist and need updating rather than fresh installation.
