Direct answer
Yes, in strategic locations where future cable replacement would otherwise require demolition. Useful paths can include the service entrance to the rack, rack to attic or crawlspace, rack to major display walls, detached buildings, gates, roof or exterior technology points, and difficult floor-to-floor routes. Conduit needs adequate diameter, bend radius, pull points, separation, accessible ends, firestopping, and a pull string.
Conduit is not a substitute for installing the cable known to be needed now, and a tube with too many tight bends may be unusable. Coordinate it with structure and other trades, photograph every route, and preserve end locations on as-built drawings. Future-ready is a more honest goal than “future-proof,” because standards and connectors will continue to change.
