REFERENCE LIBRARY
Standards & Reference Library
A map to the documents that govern installation decisions, without pretending a summary replaces the actual standard or project specification.
Structured cabling
Projects may reference TIA and/or ISO/IEC structured-cabling standards. The exact edition and test limit matter. Netcomtech does not reproduce copyrighted standards text.
Fibre end-face inspection
IEC 61300-3-35 is widely referenced for fibre connector end-face inspection criteria. Use the applicable edition and project requirements.
WiFi deployment
The Wireless Broadband Alliance publishes deployment guidance covering planning, site survey, RF considerations, implementation and operation.
Manufacturer requirements
Cable, connector, cabinet, UPS and equipment manufacturers publish product-specific limits. Those specifications can be more specific than a generic field rule and must be checked for the installed product.
Project specification
The approved project specification can define test configuration, limits, reporting, warranty and handover requirements. Record which document and revision governed the installation.
