Cable Installation and Guidelines
This guide assumes that the site’s data cables have been properly installed in
a centrally wired distribution configuration. When installing fiber optic cables
and other network cabling, always have them installed and tested by a
technician who is certified by the Electronics Industry Association /
Telecommunications Industry Association (EIA/TIA). This ensures a quality
installation and presents one less variable to consider when troubleshooting.
When installing a cable,
Do
:
•
Use more cable than required, leaving some slack.
•
Test each section of the network as it is installed. Even in new installations,
problems may occur that will be difficult to isolate later.
•
When using shielded cables, ensure that the cable is terminated to
Ground at both ends
•
If it is necessary to run cables across the floor, cover the cables with cable
protectors to prevent damage.
•
Label both ends of all cables.
•
Use cable ties or Velcro tie wraps to secure cables. If staples are used,
they must be hand installed or use a depth stop.
•
Use cable hangers and J-hooks.
Do Not
:
•
Use electrical tape or any other type of tape to secure cables.
•
Overstress cables by overtightening cable ties or stapling cables to the
point where crushing is visible. This is particularly applicable for fiber optic
cables.
•
Exceed the minimum bending radius for fiber optic cables.
•
Install cables near sources of electrical interference. All twisted pair wires
(Cat 6 cables) must be at least 3 feet away from fluorescent light boxes
and other sources of electrical interference such as a power source.
Note:
Fiber optic cables are not affected by electrical interference.
WARNING
All electrical connections are intended for indoor use only.
