Abstract
Provides building owners and managers, and those who are required to meet cabling requirements (e.g. installers), with a set of basic specifications for identification and recording of components at the time of installation to aid in administration of application, maintenance and reconfiguration (if necessary) of telecommunications cabling infrastructure.
Scope
This Standard covers the essential basic requirements for identification of components of the cabling and pathway systems and for the recording of installation particulars.
Computer database systems for cabling administration are not described in this Standard, but are covered in ISO/IEC 14763-1.
The methods included in this Standard may be used to supplement records automatically generated by cable test and certification equipment to create a complete record.
Application
The likely users of this Standard are architects, consultants and engineers specifying building works, and building owners and managers who wish to have a basic record of installations in order to meet tenant requirements and to facilitate access to and changes to the telecommunications infrastructure. The application of this Standard relative to other Australian Standards, Joint Australian/New Zealand Standards and other National Standards is indicated in Figure 1.
