Step 3.
Terminate approximately 1/2” (12.2mm) from end of conductors on Type 110 punch down block or con-
nector per schedule (T568B)
• Maximum untwist of conductors to terminations is 1/2” (12.2mm)
• Trim excess leads.
Step 4.
Shrink tubing and add appropriate ID label to the cable at the end of the heatshrink tubing.
System topology and labeling should follow TIA/EIA-568 and TIA/EIA-606 as applicable and guidelines in
ESTA’s Recommended Practice For Ethernet Cabling Systems in Entertainment Lighting Applications and Sup-
plement.
Per TIA/EIA-568, Maximum length of any horizontal cable run (i.e. between Ethernet RJ-45 receptacle (work
area) and Patch Panel) is 90 meters; Maximum length of any CATEGORY 5e cables at the Ethernet RJ-45 recep-
tacle (work area) is 3 meters.
Ethernet equipment (e.g. Patch Panels, Hubs or Switches) should be maintained in an environment of 18°-24° C
(64° -75° F) and 30% - 55% relative humidity per TIA/EIA-569-A.
Maximum length of any segment (cable run - including device cables - between Hub or Switch and Node) is 90
meters. Maximum network diameter (distance between any two Nodes) is 180 meters.

Contractor is Responsible for All Terminations
1. Only approved cable types may be used. Approved types include: CAT5e or Cat 6 UTP
2. Cable MUST be terminated exactly as shown here. Total length of cable in Master/Auxiliary wiring MUST
NOT exceed 1000 feet.
3. Cable runs MUST be routed in a “Daisy-Chain” confi guration as shown in your drawing set, if provided.
4. Total number of dimmers (Dual Dimmer Modules = 2 dimmers; Quad Dimmer Modules = 4 dimmers) in
Master/Auxiliary wiring MUST NOT exceed 96 total dimmers.
