To help this choice the fundamental and practical rules on how to use these cables are established The related cables are specified in the documents issued b

These cables are: - telecom cables used in access network, - data communication twisted pairs cables, - coaxial cables used in CATV. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

41、cs Communication cables are the highways and arteries that provide a path for telecommunications devices. There is a general tendency to say that one transmission medium is better than another. In fact, each transmission medium has its place in the design of any communication system. Each has charac
42、teristics that will make it the ideal medium to use based on a particular set of circumstances. It is important to recognize the advantages of each and develop a system accordingly. 1) At draft stage.

44、ill deal with two basic types of cabling: - balanced, - unbalanced. Balanced cabling involve twisted-pair and/or twinaxial twisted cables that are composed of one or more pairs of copper wires (see Figure 1). Unbalanced cabling involve coaxial cable, that has only one centre conductor of either soli
45、d or stranded copper wire and an outer concentric conductor. Most data and voice networks use twisted-pair cabling. Coaxial cable, is now used primarily for CATV, satellite and video connections (see Figure 2). Figure 1 - Balanced cabling Figure 2 Unbalanced cabling Licensed Copy: London South Bank

47、e A and B in Figure 4); - a quad made of four insulated wires twisted together, providing two pairs from a star formation(first pair wire A and B and second pair wire D and C in Figure 3); - a pair made of two insulated wires twisted together; - a quad made of four insulated wires twisted together,
48、providing two pairs. A D B C A B Figure 3 Starquads Figure 4 Pairs 4.1.2 Pair counts Telecommunications cable comes in many sizes, starting with a single pair of wires, up to and perhaps more than 4 200 pairs of wires. These pairs may be arranged in concentric layers or in bundles. A data communicat
49、ion terminal is fed normally with a maximum of 4 pairs, so the last part of the network is built with cables having 1 to 4 pairs. As the other parts of the network aggregate several terminal cables, they have a larger number of pairs. The highest number of pairs is encountered at the main communication switch. The main communication switch is then connected to global systems by s
