Components of Structured Cabling Systems
According to the Electric Industry Alliance/Telecommunications Industry Association, a properly structured cabling system should include the following six components:
Horizontal Cabling. Most of your cables are part of this system, including voice, data, multimedia, security, etc. The horizontal cabling system is made up of components between the telecommunications rooms and the work area outlets, including telecommunications outlets, cross connects, patch cords and consolidation points.
Backbone Cabling. Serving as your core information channel, backbone cabling includes cabling that links telecommunications and equipment rooms and entrance facilities within the building as well cabling that connects to separate buildings.
Telecommunications Room. Termination equipment that connects horizontal and backbone cabling is typically in a telecommunications room on the floor it should be serving. This includes intermediate and main cross-connects, patch cords, connecting equipment and auxiliary equipment.
Work Area. The components that connect the telecommunications outlet with the user’s workstation equipment, including outlets, patch cables and adapters. This may also include workstation devices such as computers, phones and printers.
Equipment Room. This room houses essential systems like servers, routers, switches and mechanical terminations.
Entrance Facility. Cable from the outdoor plant meets the building’s backbone cabling in the entrance facility. This is where the service provider system ends and the system owned by your organization begins.
