1.5 Pre-Installation Guidelines
• Place cables away from fluorescent lights, air conditioners, and
machines that are likely to generate electrical noise.
• Do not bend the cable in a way that it can be damaged.
• While using tie wraps to hold the cables in place, make sure
not to pull them too tight, because this can damage the cable.
• For best performance, the specifications of the cable should be:
- Gage: 24 AWG (should be written on the cable)
- Wire: solid wire (should be written in the spec. of the cable)
- For cable runs over 330 feet (100 m), the SKEW delay of the
cable should be no more than 20 ns per 330 feet (100 m) (this
should be written in the spec of the cable).
