Structured Cabling is defined as building or campus telecommunications cabling infrastructure
that consists of a number of standardized smaller elements called subsystems.
Structured cabling falls into the following six sub-systems:
- Entrance Facilities
- This is where the building interfaces with the outside world. Such as telephone
company demarcation or building to building backbone termination.
- Backbone Cabling
- Carries the signals between the entrance facilities, equipment rooms and telecommunications
rooms.
- Telecommunications Rooms
- Where various telecommunications and data equipment resides, connecting the backbone
and horizontal cabling sub-systems.
- Equipment Room
- Host equipment which serves the users inside the building.
- Horizontal Cabling
- The wiring from telecommunications rooms to the individual outlets at the work area.
- Work-Area Components
- Connect end-user equipment to the outlets of the horizontal cabling system.
