structured cabling system (SCS) - CORRECT ANSWER -
is the complete coniguration of cabling and associated connecting hardware installed to provid
e a comprehensive information and communications technology (ICT) systems infrastructure th
at transports information for multiple systems.
ICT - CORRECT ANSWER -information and communication technology
SCS infrastructure is intended to serve a wide range of applications, including: -
CORRECT ANSWER -• Analog, plain old telephone services.
• Digital telephone services (e.g., voice over Internet protocol [VoIP]).
• Uniied messaging solutions.
• Videoconferencing.
• Power over Ethernet (PoE).
• Computer networking.
• Building automation systems (BAS).
• Building management systems (BMS).
• Audiovisual systems.
AP - CORRECT ANSWER -access provider
SP - CORRECT ANSWER -service provider
An AP is - CORRECT ANSWER -
a company (e.g., telephone, local exchange carrier, broadband services, cable TV [CATV]) that p
rovides a physical (copper or optical fiber cabling) or wireless circuit path to the site.
,demarcation point - CORRECT ANSWER -
The point at which the AP cabling meets the client's cabling infrastructure
An SP is - CORRECT ANSWER -
the operator of any service that furnishes telecommunications content delivered over AP facilit
ies.
Standards provide the following beneits: - CORRECT ANSWER -
• Consistency of design and installation.
• Conformance to physical and transmission requirements.
• A basis for examining a proposed system expansion.
• Uniform documentation.
An SCS includes most or all of the following components: - CORRECT ANSWER -
• Backbone cabling and associated pathways.
• Cross-connection facilities.
• Interconnection facilities
• Horizontal cabling and associated pathways
• Work areas.
• Telecommunications outlets/connectors.
• Consolidation points (CPs).
• Multi-user telecommunications outlet assemblies (MUTOAs).
• Transition points (TPs).
• Centralized cabling.
• Distributed cabling.
• Administration (e.g., labeling, documentation).
, Backbone Cabling - CORRECT ANSWER -
the cabling and related components that are used between the spaces within an ICT systems c
abling structure, such telecommunications rooms (TRs), equipment rooms (ERs), and telecomm
unications enclosures (TEs), that handle the majority of network trafic.
Backbone cabling consists of - CORRECT ANSWER -backbone cables,
intermediate cross-connect (IC [building distributor (BD)]),
main cross-connect (MC [campus distributor (CD)]),
mechanical terminations,
patch cords or jumpers used for backbone-to-backbone cross-connection,
cabling between buildings.
There are two types of backbone cabling: - CORRECT ANSWER -
• Interbuilding backbone cabling distributes telecommunications services between buildings.
• Intrabuilding backbone cabling distributes telecommunications services between telecommu
nications spaces (e.g., ER, TR) within a single building.
Δ = - CORRECT ANSWER -Work area
AP = - CORRECT ANSWER -Access provider
EF = - CORRECT ANSWER -Entrance facility
ER = - CORRECT ANSWER -Equipment room
HC (FD) = - CORRECT ANSWER -Horizontal cross-connect (floor distributor)
