Standard Description
IEEE 802.3an This standard specifies physical layer
and management parameters for
10 Gbps operation, type 10GBASE-T
and 10 Gigabit Ethernet over
twisted-pair cabling.
IEEE 802.3at This amendment to the 802.3af
standard offers improved power-
management features. Increased power
to end devices and new possibilities
of powering devices through standard
Category 5e, 6 and 6A cabling.
The new IEEE 802.3at Power over
Ethernet Plus standard increases the
current, voltage and wattage available
over balanced 100-ohm twisted-pair
cabling systems. The standard defines
the technology for powering a wide
range of powered devices up to 25
watts over existing Category 5e and
above cables. The 802.3at standard
states that 30 watts at a minimum are
allocated at the port, so 24.6 watts are
ensured at the end device connector
100 meters away.
IEEE 802.11 This standard specifies wireless LAN
Access Control (MAC) and physical
layer (PHY) specifications.
The standard denotes a set of wireless
LAN/WLAN specifications developed by
working group 11 of the IEEE LAN/MAN
standards committee (IEEE 802).
IEEE 802.3ba This standard defines Media Access
Control (MAC) parameters, physical
layer specifications and management
parameters for the transfer of 802.3
frames at 40 Gbps and 100 Gbps. The
amendment facilitates the migration
of 10 GB Ethernet from the network
core to the edge by providing 40 Gbps
and 100 Gbps data rates for backbone
and backhaul applications to remove
bandwidth bottlenecks that exists in
many corporate networks today.

Section 2: Building Subsystems

The Six Subsystems of a Structured Cabling System


Note: This portion of the reference guide is based on two new standards titled
ANSI/TIA-568-C.0 (Generic Telecommunications Cabling for Customer Premises),
which is used for generic infrastructures, and ANSI/TIA-568-C.1 (Commercial
Building Telecommunications Cabling Standard [see p. 6]), which is more commonly
used with typical commercial building infrastructures. These two standards are fully
consistent with each other regarding the telecommunications infrastructure topology.
However, they occasionally use different terms for the same system components.
In this reference guide when different terms exist between the two standards for
the same component, the more common 568-C.1 version will be used first, followed
by the 568-C.0 (generic version) in square parentheses. Example: work area (WA)
[equipment outlet (EO)].

2. Building Subsystems|

1. Entrance Facilities (EF) Entrance facilities contain the cables, network


demarcation point(s), connecting hardware, protection devices and other
equipment that connect to the access provider (AP) or private network cabling.
It includes connections between outside plant and inside building cabling.
2. Equipment Room (ER) The environmentally controlled centralized space
for telecommunications equipment is usually more complex than a
telecommunications room (TR) or telecommunications enclosure (TE). It usually
houses the main cross-connect (MC) [Distributor C] and may also contain the
intermediate cross-connects (ICs) [Distributor B], horizontal cross-connects
(HCs) [Distributor A], or both.
3. Backbone Cabling The backbone cabling provides interconnection between
telecommunications rooms, equipment rooms, access provider (AP) spaces and
entrance facilities. There are two subsystems defined for backbone cabling:
• Cabling Subsystem 2 – Backbone cabling between the horizontal
cross-connect (HC) [Distributor A (DA)] and the intermediate cross-connect
(IC) [Distributor B (DB)]
• Cabling Subsystem 3 – Backbone cabling between an intermediate cross-connect
(IC) [Distributor B (DB)] and the main cross-connect (MC) [Distributor C (DC)]
Recognized cabling:
• 100-ohm twisted-pair cabling: Category 3, Category 5e, Category 6 or Category 6A
• Multimode optical fiber cabling: 850 nm laser-optimized 50/125 μm
is recommended; 62.5/125 μm and 50/125 μm is allowed
• Single-mode optical fiber cabling
(See Tables 2.2 and 2.3 on the following pages for maximum supportable distances
for copper and fiber backbones.)
4. Telecommunications Room (TR) and Telecommunications Enclosure (TE)
A TR or TE houses the terminations of horizontal and backbone cables to connecting
hardware including any jumpers or patch cords. It may also contain the IC or MC
for different portions of the backbone cabling system. The TR or TE also provides
a controlled environment to house telecommunications equipment, connecting
hardware and splice closures serving a portion of the building.
The use of a telecommunications enclosure (TE) is for a specific implementation
and not a general case. It is intended to serve a smaller floor area than a TR and
may be used in addition to the minimum "one TR per floor" rule.
5. Horizontal Cabling – (Cabling Subsystem 1) The horizontal cabling system
extends from the work area’s telecommunications information outlet to the
telecommunications room (TR) or telecommunications enclosure (TE). It includes
horizontal cable, mechanical terminations, jumpers and patch cords located in

the TR or TE and may incorporate multiuser telecommunications outlet assemblies


(MUTOAs) and consolidation points (CPs). The maximum horizontal cable length
shall be 90 m (295 ft.), independent of media type. If a MUTOA is deployed, the
maximum horizontal balanced twisted-pair copper cable length shall be reduced
in accordance with Table 2.4.
Recognized cabling:
•4-pair 100-ohm unshielded or shielded twisted-pair cabling:
Category 5e, Category 6 or Category 6A
• Multimode optical fiber cabling, 2-fiber (or higher fiber count)
• Single-mode optical fiber cabling, 2-fiber (or higher fiber count)

6. Work Area Work area (WA) components extend from the telecommunications
outlet/connector end of the horizontal cabling system to the WA equipment.
A minimum of two telecommunications outlets (permanent links) should be provided
for each work area. Multiuser telecommunications outlet assemblies (MUTOAs),
if used, are part of the WA.

Section 3: Twisted-Pair Cable


Twisted-Pair Cable
Twisted-pair cable consists of two insulated copper wires twisted around each
other with neighboring pairs in a bundle typically having different twist lengths,
between 5 and 15 cm, to reduce crosstalk or electromagnetic induction.
The conductor insulation and overall jacketing of the cable can utilize various
shielded or unshielded elements. The ISO/IEC 11801 cable designations are
noted in the following figures.
8-conductor/4-pair twisted-pair cable is generally used in horizontal applications
from telecommunication closets to a workstation or desk. A multipair twisted-pair
cable is generally used in intra- or inter-building backbones.

Anixter’s ipAssuredSM Program for Security Applications


Factors that affect the performance of cabling infrastructure:
• The migration of a security system to IP
• Minimally compliant Category 5e cable
• Increasing bandwidth requirements
• The need for Power over Ethernet Plus and beyond
• Installation practices
• Environmental conditions
• Quality of IP cable manufacturing
Tests conducted at the Anixter Infrastructure Solutions Lab showed that everyday
factors, such additional bandwidth requirements to accommodate more and more
IP devices and elevated temperatures found in many cabling installations, can
dramatically affect video quality and network performance. With 50 percent of
network problems attributed to the cabling system, one way to minimize network
downtime and experience the full benefits of IP’s capabilities is to invest more into
the physical layer infrastructure.

Bend Radius
It is important not to change the geometry of the cable. Bend radius is the maximum
arc into which a cable can be looped before its data transmission is impaired.
The minimum bend radius for UTP and F/UTP cable is four times the cable
diameter. The bend radius for multipair cable should follow the manufacturer’s
guidelines. The minimum bend radius for cord cable (patch cord) is one times the
cord cable diameter.
When you bend a cable too much, you separate the pairs within the jacketing, which
can result in performance degradation. Cables are manufactured very carefully.
There is a specific twist scheme/pair lay within the jacketing of the cable.
Bending it too much will disturb the benefits of the cable’s manufacturing.
Exceeding the bend radius could kink or crimp the copper, causing signal reflections.

Twisted-Pair Connectors
A registered jack (RJ) is a standardized physical network interface for connecting
telecommunications or data equipment. The physical connectors that registered jacks
use are mainly of the modular connector and 50-pin miniature ribbon connector types.
The most common twisted-pair connector is an 8-position, 8-contact (8P8C) modular
plug and jack commonly referred to as an RJ45 connector.

Figure 3.4 – Twisted-Pair Connectors

RJ45
• An 8-pin/8-position plug or jack is commonly used to connect computers
onto Ethernet-based local area networks (LAN).
• Two wiring schemes–T568A and T568B–are used to terminate
the twisted-pair cable onto the connector interface.

Figure 3.5 – RJ45

|28 1.800.ANIXTER
3. Twisted-Pair Cable|

GG45
• GG45 is a connector for high-speed Category 7 (S/FTP) cabling systems.
• It was standardized in 2001 as IEC 60603-7-7.

Figure 3.6 – GG45

RJ21
• A modular connector using 50 conductors is usually used to implement
a 25-line (or less) telephone connection.
• High-performance versions of the connector can support Category 5e
transmission levels.

Testing
Verification of the transmission performance of the installed cabling system is
recommended by the ANSI/TIA 568-C.2 standard. The primary field test parameters
for twisted-pair cabling systems include:
• Impedance or return loss
• Attenuation or insertion loss
• Near-end crosstalk
• Power-sum crosstalk
• Attenuation-to-crosstalk ratio
• Far-end crosstalk
• Propagation delay and delay skew
• Noise.
Wire mapping is the most basic and obvious test for any twisted-pair cable
installation. A proper wire-mapping tester can detect any of the following faults:
• Open pair
• Shorted pair
• Short between pairs
• Reversed pairs
• Crossed pairs

Step-By-Step – Twisted-Pair Cable Preparation and


Connector Termination
The following steps will guide you through the preparation and termination process
for UTP cable. Following these guidelines will help ensure that you receive the
optimum performance from the twisted-pair cabling.

Step 1: T he tools you will need:


• Jacket stripper
• Punch-down tool (not shown)
• Wire cutters (not shown)

Step 2: Insert cable into stripping tool to the desired


strip length. Strip off only as much cable jacket needed
to properly terminate the pairs (1 to 1½ inches should
be sufficient to terminate pairs).

anixter.com 31|
|3. Twisted-Pair Cable

Step 3: Holding the cable near the tool, rotate the tool
around the cable several times.

Step 4: Slightly bend the outer jacket and manually remove


the cut piece or slide the cut outer jacket with the stripper.

Step 5: Bend each pair in one direction to expose the rip


cord, binder or cross-web filler on the cable.

|32 1.800.ANIXTER
3. Twisted-Pair Cable|

Step 6: Remove the rip cord, binder or cross-web filler


if they are present on the cable, leaving only the twisted
pairs of wire. The cross-web filler should be cut as flush
as possible to the jacket.

Step 7: Determine the wiring scheme and properly align


all four cables accordingly on the jack. Keep the cable
jacket as close to the connector as possible. Always
use connectors, wall plates and patch panels that are
compatible (same rating or higher) with the grade of
the cable used.

anixter.com 33|
|3. Twisted-Pair Cable

Step 8: Preserve the wire pair twists as close as possible


to the point of termination. When connecting jacks and
plugs, do not untwist the cable more than 0.5 inches
for Category 5e, 6 and 6A cable.
Helpful Hint: 
• A half of an inch of an untwisted wire pair results
in 1.5 dB of near-end crosstalk.

Step 9: Insert wires down into IDC terminal slots to


position them before punching down. Ensure that the twist
is maintained. To “future-proof” an installation, terminate
all four pairs. The picture above shows an outlet being
wired to the T568B wiring scheme.

|34 1.800.ANIXTER
3. Twisted-Pair Cable|

Step 10: When using a punch-down tool, make sure the tool
is straight before punching down on the connector. Make
sure the cut-side of the tool is facing outward.

Step 11: Inspect the connector to ensure the wires are fully
engaged in the IDC terminals and they are cut properly.

Step 12: Place a dust cover on the jack for protection.

Step 13: This is how your assembled jack should look.

Section 4: Coaxial Cable


Coaxial Cable
Coaxial cable is a two-conductor electronic cable that is used as the transmission
medium for a variety of applications such as analog baseband video (closed circuit
television (CCTV)), RF broadband video (such as cable television (CATV) and satellite)
and for some data, radio and antenna applications. It is constructed to provide
protection against outside signal interference.

Figure 4.1 – Flexible Coax

Coaxial Cable Wiring Descriptions – CCTV and CATV


CCTV operates in a lower frequency range than CATV and requires different
cable constructions. Be sure that the cable used is chosen accordingly.
The primary differences are based on the frequency range differences as
shown below (see Figure 4.2).

* Note: Skin effect is the tendency of alternating current, as its frequency


increases, to travel only on the surface of a conductor. In copper-clad
steel coax, the high-frequency signal travels only on the copper “skin.”

Coaxial Connectors
Coaxial connectors are components attached to the end of a coaxial cable
that connect with an audio, video, data or other device to prevent interference
and damage.

• The 75-ohm, screw-threaded couplers are used with RG-59, RG-6
and RG-11 type coaxial cables.
• It is standard for cable television systems.
• It is simple to install and economical.
• It meets the specifications of CATV/MATV systems.
• A single crimp on the attached ferrule terminates the connector.

Bend Radius
Current military coaxial standards do not specify bend radius; however, various
manufacturers do provide guidance. Check with manufacturers for specifics.
Special care should be taken when pulling a coaxial cable around bends. Using
too much force or too tight of a bend can deform the dielectric and cause a drop
in transmission performance.

Testing
Testing coax performance includes the following:
• Impedance anomaly
• Return loss
• Attenuation or insertion loss
• Signal level
Note: Use a signal strength meter to verify that the right signal level is available
(check installed length and possible damage). Contact your Anixter sales
representative to learn more about tools available for testing coax.

Step-By-Step – Coaxial Cable Preparation and Compression


Connector Termination
The following steps will guide you through the preparation and termination process
for coaxial cable with compression connectors. Following these guidelines will help
ensure that you receive the optimum performance from the coaxial cable.

Step 1: T he tools you will need:


• Compression tool
• Cable stripper
• Compression connectors

• To order these tools, call your local Anixter sales


representative or request a quote using Anixter’s
online catalog at anixter.com/catalog.

Step 2: Adjust the blades of the stripper to expose ¼ inch


of the conductor and ¼ inch of the insulation. Insert the
coax cable into the strip cartridge to the adjusted length.

anixter.com 43|
|4. Coaxial Cable

Step 3: Holding the cable near the tool, rotate the cutter
around the cable (three to five full turns) to score the jacket
and cut through the insulation. Be sure the braid is cut (you
can hear when the wires of the braid have all been cut).
Then flex the jacket to separate and slide it off to expose
the center conductor.

Step 4: Flare and bend back the remaining outer braid onto
the cable outer jacket. Make sure to remove any stray or
loose braids. Stray or loose braids can cause shorts if they
touch the center conductor. Ensure the center conductor
and the insulation are not nicked or scored.
• When handling cables with multiple braids, such as
quad-shield, refer to the manufacturer’s literature
for proper braid handling techniques.

|44 1.800.ANIXTER
4. Coaxial Cable|

Step 5: Insert the sleeve ferrule and BNC body onto the
coaxial cable. Firmly push the cable as far as possible or
until 1⁄8 inch of the center conductor is protruding from
the connector.
• Make sure the connector is fully seated and
the white dielectric material is firmly pushed
against the inner stop of the connector. You
can see this by looking into the open end of
some connectors.

Step 6: Insert the cable and connector into the crimping


device, ensuring that it is positioned firmly. Squeeze the
crimper handle tightly. Use a ratcheting tool that does not
release until the proper crimping displacement has been
applied for the specific cabling and connector type. Once
the tool releases after the final “click,” the crimp should
be complete.

Section 5: Fiber Optic Cables


Fiber optic cables consist of a central core that carries light and an outer cladding
that completes the guiding structure. There are two basic fiber types: single-mode
and multimode.

Core Cladding Coating


Figure 5.1 – Fiber Optic Cable

Single-Mode
• Core diameter of 8 to 10 microns
• Normally used for long-distance requirements and
high-bandwidth applications
• Does not bounce light off the surrounding cladding as it travels

Multimode
• Allows more than one mode of light to travel through the cable
• Typical wavelengths of 850 and 1,350 nanometers (nm)
• Normally used in LAN applications
Multimode Fiber Optic Cable Types
Multimode 62.5-micron fiber:
• 62.5-micron core diameter
• 125-micron cladding diameter
Multimode 50-micron fiber:
• 50-micron core diameter
• 125-micron cladding diameter
• Increased bandwidth with smaller size
• Greater bandwidth with laser-optimized 50-micron fiber

It is important not to change the geometry of the cable. Changing the geometry
of the cable can negatively impact the transmission performance. Bend radius is
the maximum arc into which a cable can be looped before its data transmission is
impaired. The minimum bend radius for optical fiber cable is 10 times the diameter.

Testing

Figure 5.9 – Fiber Optic Cable Tester


Attenuation is the parameter most frequently measured and includes the attenuation
of the cable as well as that of attached connectors. Attenuation testing is done with
an Optical Loss Test Set (OLTS). Cable attenuation can be caused by microbending,
poorly installed connectors, the presence of dirt on the end face of a connector,
excessive mechanical force on the cable or, of course, a broken fiber.
There are two tiers of optical field testing defined in the standards:
• Tier 1: Mandatory – Tests attenuation and verifies cable length and polarity
• Tier 2: Optional – Includes the Tier 1 tests plus an optical time domain
reflectometer (OTDR) trace

Section 6: Conduit, CAble Basket and Ladder


Fill Recommendations

Conduit Fill Recommendations


Conduit fill states the maximum amount of space that the installed cables should
occupy in a given size conduit expressed as a percentage of the interior volume.
When designing a conduit run, consider not only the cable being installed now but
also the likelihood of having to add cables in the future.
Table 6.1 (right) makes recommendations for the maximum cables to be installed
in conduit.
• Clearance should be ¼ inch at minimum and up to 1 inch for large cable
installations or installations involving numerous bends.
• When calculating clearance, ensure all cable diameters are equal.
• Do not exceed recommended conduit fill requirements.
• Typical OD for twisted-pair cabling is 0.25 to 0.35 inch.

Section 7: Administration

Administration
Modern buildings require an effective telecommunications infrastructure to
support the wide variety of services that rely on the electronic transport of
information. Administration includes basic documentation and timely updating
of drawings, labels and records. Administration should be synergistic with voice,
data and video telecommunications, as well as with other building signal systems,
including security, audio, alarms and energy management.
Administrative record keeping plays an increasingly necessary role in the flexibility
and management of frequent moves, adds and changes. The ANSI/TIA-606-A
standard concisely describes the administrative record keeping elements of a
modern structured cabling system.

Elements of an Administration System per the ANSI/TIA-606-A Standard


• Horizontal pathways and cabling
• Backbone pathways and cabling
• Telecommunications grounding and bonding
• Spaces (e.g., entrance facility, telecommunications room, equipment room)
• Firestopping

Classes of Administration
Four classes of administration are specified in this standard to accommodate
diverse degrees of complexity present in telecommunications infrastructure.
Each class defines the administration requirements for identifiers, records
and labeling. An administration system can be managed using a paper-based
system, general-purpose spreadsheet software or special-purpose cable
management software.

Class 1 Administration
Class 1 Administration addresses the administration requirements for a building
or premise that is served by a single equipment room (ER). The following
infrastructure identifiers shall be required in Class 1 Administration when
the corresponding elements are present:
• Telecommunications space (TS) identifier
• Horizontal link identifier
• Telecommunications main grounding busbar (TMGB)
• Telecommunications grounding busbar (TGB)

|72 1.800.ANIXTER
7. Administration|

Class 2 Administration
Class 2 Administration addresses the administration of infrastructure with
one or more telecommunications spaces (TS) in a single building. The following
infrastructure identifiers shall be required in Class 2 Administration when
the corresponding elements are present:
• Identifiers required in Class 1 Administration
• Building backbone cable identifier
• Building backbone pair or optical fiber identifier
• Firestopping location identifier
Class 2 Administration may additionally include pathway identifiers.

Class 3 Administration
Class 3 Administration addresses infrastructure with multiple buildings
at a single site.
The following infrastructure identifiers shall be required in Class 3 Administration:
• Identifiers required in Class 2 Administration
• Building identifier
• Campus backbone cable identifier
• Campus backbone pair or optical fiber identifier
The following infrastructure identifiers are optional in Class 3 Administration:
• Identifiers optional in Class 2 Administration
• Outside plant pathway element identifier
• Campus pathway or element identifier
Additional identifiers may be added if desired.

Class 4 Administration
Class 4 Administration addresses infrastructure with multiple sites or campuses.
The following infrastructure identifiers shall be required in Class 4 Administration:
• Identifiers required in Class 3 Administration
• Campus or site identifier
The following infrastructure identifiers are optional in Class 4 Administration:
