Cabling guidelines
"Structured Cabling" specifies general guidelines for network architecture of a
LAN, establishing maximum cable lengths for the grounds area, building and
floor cabling.
The "Structured Cabling" is standardized in EN 50173, ISO 11801 and TIA
568-A. It forms the basis for a future-orientated, application-independent and
cost-effective network infrastructure.
The cabling standards define a domain covering a geographical area of 3 km
and for an office area of up to 1 million square meters with 50 to 50,000
terminals. In addition, they describe recommendations for setting up of a
cabling system.
Specifications may vary depending on the selected topology, the transmission
media and coupler modules used in industrial environments, as well as the use
of components from different manufacturers in a network. Therefore, the
specifications given here are only intended as recommendations.
