FOREWORD
This technical code for the Technical Standard and Infrastructure Requirements for Simple
Development Properties (‘Technical Code’) was developed pursuant to section 185 of the Act 588 by
the Malaysian Technical Standards Forum Bhd (‘MTSFB’) via its Fixed Network Facilities Working
Group (FNF WG)
The Fixed Network Facilities (FNF) forms a part of the Technical Standards and Infrastructure
Requirements (TSIR) document which serves as guidelines and standards in support of the Uniform
Building By-Laws (UBBL). This document as a sub-document of TSIR specifically develops for Simple
Development Properties that only require a basic telecommunication infrastructure. The document was
prepared with the common understanding and agreement among the Fixed Network Providers’
representatives in Malaysia.
In the context of meeting the needs of telecommunication (fixed network services) users, TSIR
addresses the technical system and infrastructure requirements necessary for having the fixed network
distribution system equipped in the building. This is important in view of Fixed Network Services which
are used as a medium for delivery the basic telecommunication service which are the Telephony and
Multi Broadband Services to the public / customers.
As stated above, the Fixed Network Facilities in the TSIR for Simple Development Properties document
covers two primary objectives:
a) It outlines the infrastructure requirements (for the purpose of setting up a common and
integrated fixed network distribution system) to consulting engineers, Developers, owners and other
responsible parties for the provisions to be made available in the simple development category
buildings.
b) It also provides the minimum technical specifications necessary for the Fixed Network
Telephony and Multi broadband distribution system to function as required in simple development
buildings.
This Technical Code shall continue to be valid and effective until reviewed or cancelled.

white Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) sheath.
The cable shall meet all applicable requirement stated in ANSI/ICEA S-104-696, ITU-T, IEC 60794-2
(2002-12) or JIS Standard for Optical Fibre outside Plant Communication Cable, as well as those stated
within this specification.
The cable type is ITU-T G.652D Single Mode fibre. However, it is highly recommended to use G.657 -
bend insensitive type for Internal Fibre Cable to reduce the fibre loss due to macro bending during the
installation work. General specification for G.657 indoor fibre cables is shown in Table 4.
Internal Fibre Cable is used for corridor and indoor cabling. Its structure is shown in Figure 11.
Internal Fibre Cable is suitable for aerial, duct, fixing along with wall, under carpet, installation ways,
and its characteristics are as followings:
11
a) Small outer diameter, light weight, suitable for branching, indoor, limited room;
b) Reserved tearing gap of optical cable can separate the fibre easily without instruments, which
is convenient to construct; and
c) Adopting small winding radius fibre with 15mm and even 10mm, suitable for indoor routing under
the instance of sudden turning, for instance wall-pole corner and indoor smooth panel.

10. Cabling test

10.1 UTP cabling test
Each cable be tested using the UTP Cable tester – UTP Test Equipment. All of the item as listed below
shall be tested to ensure all the cabling are in good condition and able to support services as require
by NFP and meet the EIA/TIA 568 standard:
a) Wiremap Test;
b) Performance Test - Return loss, Crosstalk, Cable Attenuation test; and
c) Length measurement.
The test equipment for system certification should comply with Level IIE-Test Equipment. Level III Test
Equipment is recommended. The Test Equipment shall be initialized before use.
10.2 Wiremap Test
Figure 18 shows the sample of wiremap tester to verify cable continuity, short, open and crossed wire
pairs.
Wiremapping is a simple test that confirms each wire is hooked up correctly, with no opens or shorts.
Each pair shall be connected to the correct pins at the plugs and jacks, with good contacts in the
terminations. A "wiremapper" is basically a continuity checker that determines if pins are correctly
connected.
17
Figure 18. Wiremap Tester
Length measurement - Since EIA/TIA 568 cables shall be less than 90m (296ft) in the permanent link
and 100m in the channel (328 ft), cable length shall be tested using the Time Domain Reflectometer
(TDR) or Cable Certifier.
10.3 Performance Test
To verify the performance of the UTP cable, generally LAN Verifier Equipment is highly recommended.
This test is to ensure the prepared cabling are able to support higher bandwidth service.
Performance testing for attenuation, crosstalk, etc. requires testing over the full frequency range of the
cable. The frequency range for each cable type is:
a) Cat 3: 16 MHz;
b) Cat 5/5e: 100 MHz;
c) Cat 6: 250 Mhz; and
d) Cat 6A: 500 MHz.
Attenuation test requires a tester at each end of the cable, one (1) to send and one (1) to receive, then
one (1) of them will calculate the loss and record it. There are pass/fail criteria for the cable at Cat 3, 4,
5, 5e, 6 and 6A maximum frequencies. Here is how typical cable attenuation changes with frequency.
Cat 5e/6 testers measure crosstalk from one (1) pair to all three (3) other pairs for each pair and
compare it to the 568 specs, giving a pass/fail result. Some also calculate ACR as it is a measure of
how big the crosstalk signal is to the attenuated signal at the receiver. You want this number as big as
possible, as it is an indication of the signal to noise ratio.
10.4 UTP Testing Procedures
The testing procedures as below:
a) Test shall be done on every single cable from Point to Point (P2P), i.e from patch panel to TO.
b) At the end of the installation, structured cabling cable pairs of Cat 5 cables shall be tested from the
Telecommunications Point to the TO.
18
Figure 19. Permanent link testing configuration
Permanent link testing configuration is as shown in Figure 19.
For Cat 5e cables, the following permanent link test shall be performed:
a) Insertion Loss
b) Near End Crosstalk (NEXT)
c) Powersum NEXT
d) Equal level far end crosstalk (ELFEXT)
e) Powersum ELFEXT
f) Return loss
g) Delay Skew
h) ACR
Any pairs not meeting the requirements of the standard shall be brought into compliance.
10.5 Insulation Resistance (IR) test
This test shall be carried out for two (2) pairs per unit for cables of unit construction or two (2) pairs per
layer formatting. In all cases the minimum number of pairs to be tested shall be ten (10) pairs. The IR
test connection is as shown in Figure 20.
IR test on Cable End:
a) The IR test shall be measured with a 500 V DC Test Meter. The IR of each wire (including stumped
pairs) in the cable shall be measured with all other wires, and screen connected to earth and the
measurements recorded. The Guard facility of the IR Test Meter shall be used in order to avoid the
effects of leakage current during measurement.
b) For this test all equipment connected to the cable at the TP and the field mounted carrier frequency
equipment shall be disconnected. The pairs used to feed power remote from the any source shall
have the power disconnected. All wires at the far end shall be opened.
c) After steady electrification for one (1) minute the IR of each conductor in the cable measured with
all other conductors and screen connected to earth shall not be less than 1500 MΩ kilometre at
ambient temperature. The measurement to be made to the nearest MΩ wherever possible.
d) If the conductor fails to meet the minimum requirement, then that pair is classified as a faulty pair
unless the defect is rectified or proved to be due to any associated equipment.
19
Figure 20. Insulation Resistance (IR) test connection
10.6 Conductor Resistance (CR) test
All conductors should be tested for continuity and the loop resistance of each pair should be recorded.
The measured value of all pairs should be within 10% of the calculated value. The calculated value is
based on the cable length as determined from the length installed, standard conductor resistance and
adjusted to the temperature at the time of measurement as shown in Figure 21 below.
Figure 2119. Conductor Resistance (CR) test
For stumped pairs, conductor resistance test should preferably be done prior to closing the joint, i.e.
before final commissioning tests for completed cable system. Readings shall be recorded and submitted
formally to the Superintending Officer as soon as possible. For calculation purposes, the standard
resistance for single copper conductors at 20ºC shall be as given in the Table 6.

The temperature co-efficient of resistance (copper conductor) is 0.0039/ºC.
10.7 Fibre Cabling test
For the building that has been installed with the fibre cabling, each connection of the fibre shall be tested
to ensure it is in working condition and meeting the NFP specification. Generally, only IL test require to
be performed. NFP may require additional test depend on their requirement.
IL test is performed to measure the total loss between FTB and FWS. It should inclusive of the connector
loss inside the FTB and FWS, cable loss and also any jointing loss between that connector. IL is
measured in dB unit and the allowable IL loss between FTB and FWS is 1.6 dB.
To measure IL, generally the test gear as below is used:
a) Optical Loss Test Set (OLTS);

b) Power Meter together with Light Source; and
c) Optical Time Domain Reflectometer (OTDR).
All the cabling should be connected as shown in Figure 22 below, to perform the IL test.
