ANSI/TIA-568-C.1: Backbone and Horizontal Cabling Structure
TECHNICAL
A backbone cabling structure shall have no more than two levels of cross-connections. A two-level backbone and the relationship
with horizontal cabling is shown below.
Application Notes
X Backbone distances are application dependent. Maximum distances for UTP are based on voice transmission. A 90-meter
maximum distance applies to UTP data transmission at a bandwidth of 5-16 MHz for Category 3, 20-100 MHz for Category
5e, and 1-250 MHz for Category 6.
X For UTP voice applications and fiber, the backbone distances of segment “B” may be increased if “C” is less than the maximum,
but the total B + C must not exceed “A”.
X Refer to "Optical Fiber Supportable Distances" on page N7.

ANSI/TIA-568-C.1
The Entrance Facility (EF) is located where the access provider and inter-building
network cables enter the building. Outside plant cables, typically from underground, are
terminated inside the entrance facility. This location is known as the demarcation point –
the transition from access provider to customer-owned cable. A combination of
electrical, fire, building, municipal, and FCC codes apply to the EF. The EF may share
other functions, including fire and security alarms, CCTV, CATV, PBX, etc.
Basic Requirements:
O Dry environment.
O Proper backboarding for equipment.
O Secure location.
O Access to building electrical service ground.
ANSI/TIA-568-C.1
O Circuit protection.
This standard specifies electrical performance requirements for installed UTP cable and connecting hardware for each recognized category. Augmented

X Use the proper strip tool for the cable jacket. Don't cut into the conductor pairs.
X For best results, use the zip cord and peel away the cable jacket.
X Position the stripped cable jacket as close as possible to the termination point to
minimize exposure of the twisted pairs.
X Maintain the natural twist of all conductor pairs as close as possible to the
termination point. For Category 5e and 6 wiring, the maximum length of untwisted
pairs is 0.5”. Minimum untwisting optimizes Return Loss performance.
X Never uncoil UTP cable from a stationary spool. Permanent kinks will result from
straightening, and NEXT failures may occur. Unwind the cable by rotating the spool
with steady speed and tension. Also avoid scraping and kinking when feeding into
conduit or raceway.
X Store cable slack for wall outlets above the ceiling for future re-termination.
X Use proper supports and spacing to minimize sag in horizontal runs. Long runs
should use cable trays. Do not overload cable supports and trays.
X Don't exceed 40% cable fill ratio in any pathway.
X Avoid EMI by maximizing the separation distance from high voltage circuits,
transformers, motors, etc. For shared pathways, use partitioned raceway with 2”
minimum separation from power wiring.
X Do not run UTP cables over heater ducts or hot water
ducts. High temperatures will degrade performance

ANSI/TIA-568-C.2: Category 6A UTP Cabling
Augmented Category 6, or Category 6A unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable is designed to support 10GBASE-T (10 Gigabit Ethernet)
transmission in accordance with IEEE802.3an requirements. IEEE802.3an was officially ratified in June 2006. The 568B.2-10
standard for Category 6A was officially ratified in February 2008.
X Category 6A permanent link and channel performance are defined to 500 MHz.
X Alien Cross Talk (AXT) parameters are defined to 500 MHz.
X AXT is a measure of signal coupling from energized pairs in a disturber cable or component into disturbed pairs within
surrounding cables or components.
X Category 6A AXT parameters are summarized below (see Glossary also):
• ANEXT (Alien Near End Crosstalk).
• PSANEXT (Power Sum Alien Near-End Crosstalk).
• AACRF (Attenuation to Alien Crosstalk Ratio, Far End). NOTE: Previously referred to as AFEXT.
• PSAACRF (Power Sum Attenuation to Alien Crosstalk ratio, Far-End). NOTE: Previously referred to as PSAFEXT.
To mitigate the effects of AXT, the cable design shall meet the “worst case” 6-around-1 AXT requirements as shown below. Larger wire
size, tighter twisting and thicker cable jacket are key design parameters. As a result, the cable diameter is larger, and will have an
impact on installation practices. Refer to Hubbell’s “10 GbE Cabling Guidelines for more details.
X Field-testing of AXT in installed links or channels is optional per 568B-2-10.
X AXT field testing equipment is identified in the table on page N13.
X Link and channel components must also be designed to mitigate AXT.
X NOTE: The primary limitation with 10GbE operation is ANEXT. Individual Cat 6 links with no EMI should be able to support
10GbE up to 100m. Multiple links in parallel become a concern with ANEXT.
The mitigation procedure suggested by TSB-155 is outlined below. Each mitigation step requires field AXT testing to 500 MHz for
verification.
X Unbundle cables and patch cords.
X Substitute ScTP patch cords and equipment cords.
X Substitute Category 6A jacks.
X Substitute Category 6A panels.
The applications below are supported by this standard. The 569B standard incorporates all previous addenda to the 569A version.

for Telecommunications
This standard specifies grounding and bonding design and distribution methods for commercial
buildings. Proper earth grounding of the building structure and wiring is a requirement of the
National Electric Code (NEC). Bonding all electrical and telecommunications equipment to the
primary grounding electrode conductor (GEC) is essential for maximizing performance and safety.
Grounding Bar *Bonding to water pipes is now a code violation.
Cat No. MCCGBAR
Bonding telecommunications equipment, facilities, and cabling to the primary grounding electrode
is accomplished using the following major elements:
Data centers have a high level of fault tolerance, with (4) tiers of redundancy for all critical systems and support functions. Higher
tiers are inclusive of lower tiers of redundancy, and provide increased levels of protection from service interruptions caused by specific
events, such as fire or earthquakes. A Tier 4 facility provides maximum service availability, and is also the most costly construction.

ANSI/TIA-1005: Industrial Telecommunication Infrastructure
The official standard is developed by the TIA/TR-4.9 Industrial Telecommunications Infrastructure
Subcommittee. This standard defines the requirements for cabling, connectors, pathways, and
spaces designed to operate in harsh environments.
For the Industrial Ethernet application, the basic performance and reliability sections of
ANSI/TIA-568-C apply. Additional requirements are being defined in TIA-1005 to incorporate
harsh environments.
TR-42.9 has established four conditions (MICE) that define the industrial environment:
X Mechanical (shock, vibration, impact, etc.).
X Ingress (contamination influx).
X Climate (temperature, humidity, UV exposure, etc.).
X Electromagnetic (conducted and radiated interference).
Industrial Ethernet components are rated to withstand these conditions under specific levels of
severity. The level of severity is determined by the application.
Ingress Protection (IP) codes are a two-digit code with the following criteria:
O First Digit: degree of protection from human contact with hazardous elements inside an
enclosure, or from influx of foreign matter.
O Second Digit: degree of protection of equipment inside enclosures from the influx of
water.

same pathways and wall outlet boxes with twisted pair or fiber data cabling. However, according to NEC 2005 Article 725.56(F),
Class 1 audio power cables are prohibited from sharing the same pathway with any other Class 2 or Class 3 low voltage control wiring
