the ITS cabling Installation
NEC - (correct Answer) - National electric code
Frequency conversion chart - (correct Answer) - One thousand hertz = 1KHz
One million Kilohertz = 1 MHz
One billion Megahertz = 1 GHz
NFPA - (correct Answer) - National Fire protection association
AHJ - (correct Answer) - Authorities having jurisdiction
TIA/EIA - (correct Answer) - - Telecommunications Industry association
- Electronic industries alliance
BICSI - (correct Answer) - - Building
- Industry
- Consulting
- Service
- International
Frequency - (correct Answer) - Optical pulses using cycles per second, 1 unit of hertz = 1 cycle per second
4hz = 4 cycles per second
Definition of transmission - (correct Answer) - The movement of information in the form of electrical or
optical signals from one point to another through a transport medium
Refraction - (correct Answer) - Bending of the light as it passes from one medium into another
MHz - (correct Answer) - - Quantifies the bandwidth of a cabling system in a frequency range
- Information handling capabilities of the medium
Megabits - (correct Answer) - - transmission rate
, - Number of bits information that can be transported over the medium(vehicles of the highway)
Anatomy of a fiber - (correct Answer) - - Core
- Cladding
- Coating
Attenuation = - (correct Answer) - The decrease in magnitude of transmission signal strength between
points, expressed in decibel as the ratio of out put to input signal
Attenuation [insertion loss] = - (correct Answer) - Light pulses traveling along fiber are subjected to loss
due to absorption or scattering of the light
Intrinsic = - (correct Answer) - Controlled by the manufacture/expresses in decibels per-kilometer
impacts the signal to reach the receiver with sufficient power
Extrinsic = - (correct Answer) - Controlled by the installer/expresses in decibels per-kilometer impacts the
signal to reach the receiver with sufficient power
Attenuation loss = - (correct Answer) - - Expressed in decibels per kilometers
- Impacts the ability of the signal to reach the receiver with sufficient power
dBm = - (correct Answer) - Optical power referred to as 1 milliwatt of power
CWDM = - (correct Answer) - Coarse wave division multiplexing
DWDM = - (correct Answer) - Dense wave division multiplexing
APC - (correct Answer) - Angle polish connector
SCS = - (correct Answer) - Structured cabling system
Tight buffered = - (correct Answer) - Zipcord
Distribution = - (correct Answer) - - Most popular backbone cable
- High fiber density
- Terminated in patch panels and wall mounted box
- Breakout cable
Loose tube = - (correct Answer) - Outdoor
Tight buffer breakout = - (correct Answer) - Indoor
Zip-Cord = - (correct Answer) - Short runs, patch cords, laid in cable trays
OPGW = - (correct Answer) - Optical power ground wire
Fiber is immune to = - (correct Answer) - Electrical interference
