TIA Issues Call for Interest on new Project for Generic Telecommunications Cabling for Customer Premises; Addendum 1: Balanced Single Twisted-pair Cabling
Stakeholders Invited to Contact TIA Regarding Participation.
Arlington VA. (July 31, 2020) – The Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) TR-42.1 Engineering Committee on Premises Telecommunications Infrastructure has issued a call for interest for document ANSI/TIA-568.0-E-1 initially titled “Generic Telecommunications Cabling for Customer Premises; Addendum 1: Balanced Single Twisted-pair Cabling”. TR-42.1 is developing guidelines in the area defined by the following scope: “This Addendum adds balanced single twisted-pair topology, architecture and installation requirements to ANSI/TIA-568.0-E providing guidelines in buildings where 1-pair cabling can be deployed. This Addendum will also provide balanced single twisted-pair cabling guidelines in accordance with ANSI/TIA-568.5 for emerging intelligent building systems (IBS), Internet of things (IoT) and machine to machine (M2M) applications that will require higher density, reduced size, and greater flexibility to serve these devices.”
The stakeholders may include, but are not limited to: Designers; installers; systems integrators; equipment manufacturers; consultants; contractors; integrators; building owners; building managers; end users.
TIA is actively seeking participation in these projects from the user and general interest communities.
