This Standard specifies minimum requirements for telecommunications cabling within a commercial building and between buildings in a campus environment.
It specifies cabling requirements, cabling distances, telecommunications outlet/connector configurations, and a recommended topology. Building telecommunications cabling specified by this Standard is intended to support a wide range of different commercial building sites and applications (e.g., voice, data, text, video, and image).
Typically, this range includes sites with a geographical extent from 3 000 m (approximately 10 000 ft), up to 1 000 000 m2 (approximately 10 000 000 ft2) of office space, and with a population of up to 50 000 individual users.
Telecommunications cabling systems specified by this Standard are intended to have a useful life in excess of ten years.
This Standard applies to the telecommunications cabling systems of buildings for commercial enterprises that are office oriented.
