Your cable will run directly between the network device locations. Each cable
segment must be a continuous run between the device connectors at two loca-
tions. The use of splices, taps, splitters, or any other configurations such as
'star' or 'tree' configurations, is not allowed. The only allowed media compo-
nents are the network cable and network device connectors.
You will typically plan your cable runs according to the vertical rises and hor-
izontal distances between sites. When you order cable, you will be ordering it
by reels of fixed length. Order reels of sufficient length to allow continuous
runs between the network devices. Provide excess length at each site for ser-
vice loops, strain reliefs, and dressing.
