Data Structured Cabling System

The structured cabling system used should be carried out as infrastructure work in campuses, offices and desks in order to convey information datas.

The structured cabling system used should be carried out as infrastructure work in campuses, offices and desks in order to convey information datas. All structured cabling for analog and digital transmission of all control and communication signals of a building consists of active and passive devices. The structured cabling system to be used must be protocol-independent and meet the requirements for future new standards. AppleTaik Networks, FDDI TP-PMD, ATM, Token Ring Fiber to the Desktop, IBM Systems 3X i AS400, RS232, 100BASE-T, 10BASE-T, IBM 3270, Terminal Server protocols should be supported.

WHAT ARE THE TYPES of STRUCTURAL CABLING ?
1. What is backbone cabling?
Backbone or vertical cabling also consists of a main cable and carrier cable lines that spread over it like a tree. Generally, communication is done vertically from floor to floor. All traffic moves backbone. Fiber-optic cable creates a good data path with low error rate and is not affected by the external environment.

2. What is hortizonal cabling?
Horizontal wiring can consist of both horizontal and vertical lines. Horizontal wiring is created by drawing a horizontal cable between the terminal and the distribution points which are considered as central points. It is a type of wiring that is widely used in modern offices.

WHICH PRODUCTS DOES STRUCTURAL CABLING CONTAIN?
The companies producing structural cabling equipment have Shielded (protected-FTP, SFTP), Unshielded (unprotected-UTP) and Fiber Optic solutions and four thousand kinds of product, which are certified by independent laboratories, conforming to these categories and all industry standards. The products include active (hub, star switches, etc.) and passive (cable, connectors, sockets, patch panels ... etc.) network products, rack cabinets, cable carriers and shelves and electrical protection (UPS).

WHAT ARE STRUCTURAL CABLING PRODUCTS?
UTP (Unshlelded Twisted Pair): This cable consists of four pairs of twisted wires joined together in the same cable bed. UTP cables have several categories, the highest being Category-5 (Cat-5). Category-3 carries 16MHz, Category-4 carries 20MHz, and Category-5 carries 100 MHz. Today, Cat-6, Cat6A and Cat-7 standards are now available in the network market.

STP (Shielded Twisted Pair): Twisted wire pairs around and around the entire pair of wire shielding (shield) is known. Metallic shielding removes noise from the cable and reduces its effects. It supports 10 MHz, 16 MHz, 100 Mhz communication.

Coaxial cable: This type of cable derives its name from the position of two conductors located on the same central axis. The coaxial cable consists of insulating material wrapped around the copper conductor and a conducting channel around the insulating material. The outer channel conductor acts as shielding and protects the cable against external electrical currents, while preventing electrical signals from being emitted from the cable.

Fiber optic cable: Fiber optic cables, which is one of the biggest developments in communication technology, are being used increasingly. Optical fiber is a glass wire as thin as human hair and is designed to transmit information by laser pulses. etworks formed by the fiber optic cable will be easily detected as the signal strength changes when an uncontrolled stud is made in the cable. It is therefore an ideal material for environments requiring very strict security.

WHICH TESTS SHOULD BE PASSED FOR STRUCTURAL CABLING?

  • 1. Cabling: While doing cabling some factors should be considered such as cable channel and structural cables used in the length limits, connections and bends, data cables do not pass by the power lines, taking precautions for possible fire hazards and cables not to be crushed.
  • 2. Termination: Connectors used, data sockets must comply with the standards. The operations carried out during the termination process should not cause any future problems. In addition, the required connection shape should be applied in order to minimize cable connector losses.
  • 3. Earthing: In order not to be affected by external magnetic fields, earthing should be done in required standards. If the STP cable is used, the STP distribution panels must be directly earthing.
  • 4. Labeling: Topology of the network should be formed by labeling distribution panels, cables and sockets.
  • 5. Confirmation Test: After all wiring is completed, EIA / TIA standard compliance tests should be performed with test equipment. All terminals should be determined for their individual characteristic values ​​and the non-matching terminals must be re-examined to bring them into compliance with the standards.
  • 6. Cabinets and frames: The connection standards required for data and power lines must be observed when installing the used cabinets.
